The plain cylindrical tubular wings are perforated to take a concealed axis bar and the slot in the centre would have held a hinged pin, which is now missing. The humped bow has a groove down each side and most of the original surface is worn away midway down. The bow tapers to a pointed foot, which is decorated with four horizontal grooves. The short catchplate is possibly incomplete and has a length is 10.8mm and the width is 4.2mm. The length of the brooch is 35.2mm, the width is 19.2mm and the weight is 3.83g. | 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: | 55
