Description: | Copper alloy brooch, Trumpet type with semi-circular plate mid bow. Only the bow survives, missing much of the head and the catchplate and the foot and damaged centre plate; probably bent (flattened). The semicircular plate has a cetral triangle which probably contained enamel (completely discoloured deposit); an area of royal blue enamel survives between the triangle and the edge. The lower bow is D-shaped in section (perhaps slightly facetted on the front)and a small projection at the foot is probably the top of a ring. Surviving length 43mm. Type as Hattatt 972-973, 1534 etc but these have circular designs within the semi-circle. | 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: | 80
