Description: | Anglo-Saxon cruciform brooch fragment made from cast copper alloy.
The face is decorated in relief and is convex in section, with a hollow-cast back. The fragment comes from the foot of the brooch and is in the form of a horse's head. The horse's two sub-circular nostrils are developed into little Style I birds' heads. There is a fan-shaped extension between the nostrils. | 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: | 500
