Description: | Gilt copper alloy plate brooch. The brooch is oval and has a raised inner oval collar which contains the remains of a degraded green glass conical setting. The recessed oval field outside of the collar is gilded and decorated with a band of S-shaped motifs. There is a pierced pin lug and catchplate on the reverse. The pin is missing.
The brooch is much more squat than most other plate brooches of this type. The catchplate is well extended.
The surface of the brooch is covered in the main with a fine light brown concreation. | 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: | 100
