Description: | A cast copper alloy Roman trumpet brooch. The foot is decorated with a fat disc knob; behind the foot are the remains of a broken catchplate, presumably triangular. The bow gradually widens before suddenly flaring out into moulded acanthus leaf decoration near the top. Above the acanthus the bow narrows and curves sharply inwards, and then flares out into the typical trumpet shaped head. The spring and pin mechanism behind the head is now missing. | 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: | 100
