Description: | Copper alloy brooch, Colchester derivative type with rear hook spring attachment. Missing spring, pin, otherwise good condition. There are patches of corrosion, possibly remains of solder, at both ends of the back of the wings. The wing fronts are moulded; at the ends a bead with traces of transverse hatching, flanked by narrow grooves and ribs, and towards the middle a broader concave moulding. The bow is flat backed, with a low rounded front, and tapers to a small flat end. A broad band along the bow centre is recessed, within which two broad ribs have angled hatching. The hatchin runs downwards towards the centre. Width 19.5mm, length 35.7mm. Some similarities to examples from Flempton (FMP 009) and South Elmham (SEJ 006) in Suffolk. | 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: | 43
