Description: | A copper-alloy brooch. The brooch is made from coiled wires which create a sub-circular shape in plan. The wires have central, drop-shaped terminals which renders the appearance of the brooch as one constructed by two interlocking serpents. The obverse of the brooch also features irregular incised patterning. Evidence remains of a pin lug and catchplate on the reverse of the brooch, although any pin is now missing. The artefact is probably post-medieval in date. | 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: | 1600
