Description: | Elaborate disc brooch. The brooch is flat in section. The outer perimeter is decorated with eight peripheral knobs. The face has three circular enamelled bands, each seperated by a band of silvered copper alloy. From outer to inner, the enamel colours are green, blue and red. All non-enamelled surfaces are silvered. There is are two copper alloy lugs on the reverse holding the remains of an iron spring in place. The catchplate is intact. The brooch is very similar to, and perhaps the partner to LIN-4CD594 which was found on the same area some years previous. Interestingly the colours of the bands are in the reverse order to this brooch. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | 50
