Description: | A worn and incomplete cast copper-alloy Roman headstud brooch. Behind the head is a semicylindrical casting that contains a central slot for the missing pin. Although the wings are very worn at the edges, a vertical row of lozenge-shaped cells is still visible. One cell still retains blue enamel. The top of the head has a crest moulding with an empty lozenge-shaped enamel cell. The actual headstud is missing and all that remains is a hollow circular socket. The surviving part of the incomplete bow is decorated with three vertical lozenge-shaped cells with blue enamel. The surviving length is 23.9mm, the width is 17.6mm and the weight is 6.39g. | 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
