Description: | A copper alloy Roman brooch, probably a Colchester derivative or T-shape form. The bow terminates in a broad triangular catchplate, the end of which is broken. There may be decorative moulding on the bow in the form of a row of dot and circle motifs, although this is poorly preserved. Between the wings there are the remains of a lug or hook, and below this on the reverse another protrusion that would have formed a loop for attachment of the spring. The arms are curved in section and open on the reverse. No evidence of the spring mechanism or pin survives. | 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: | 50
