Description: | Copper alloy brooch, Colchester derivative hinged type (or perhaps a T-shaped type). Missing pin; badly corroded in areas with iron corrosion deposits; a worn area on the front of the lower bow. The hinge bar is iron. The wings are cylindrical with no visible join/seam. The front of the wings are moulded, with flute, narrow ribs and grooves and bead mouldings.The bow is rectangular in section and tapers to a blunt point, but both the front and back faces are slightly convex. The front has three beaded longitudinal ribs separated by narrow grooves. The catchplate is large with no holes or grooves. Width 29mm, length 53mm. The moulded wings and bow decoration probably relate this to the Colchester derivative series. | 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: | 43
