Description: | Complete silver annular brooch. The hoop is circular in section and is decorated with four, evenly spaced globular projections. Each projection is decorated with clusters of raised dots, perhaps to imitate simple flowers. There is no pin constriction. The brooch pin has a collar, similarly decorated. The brooch has a dull, dark silvery grey patina. It is 23.5mm in diameter and the hoop is 1mm thick. The pin is damaged at the very tip and is 23.58mm long. The brooch weighs 3.08g. An exact example can be seen in the Treasure Annual report 2001, number 88. Here J.P. Robinson dates the brooch to the late 13th or early 14th century. | 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: | 1275
