Description: | Incomplete copper alloy headstud brooch. The brooch has cylindrical wings in section containing an axis bar for a hinged pin. The wing faces are flat and rectangular. There is a broken suspension loop in the centre above. The bow is rectangular in section as it leaves the wings, expanding and flattening into a moulded circular headstud. There is a pellet in the centre of the headstud. Beneath the headstud the bow is flat and widens to terminate with a lozenge shaped face. The face of the bow is decorated with five deep grooves giving it a fan-like appearene similar to the foot of a langton down brooch. There is a broken catchplate on the reverse. The pin is missing. The entire brooch is damaged and bent over in two. | 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: | 70
