Description: | A late Saxon cloisonne enamelled disc brooch. The brooch is circular and would have had enamelled lugs around the perimeter however these are all now missing. The surface of the brooch is decorated with a perimeter of cells containing blue enamel. A short cross of blue enamelled cells is located in the centre of the circle. Two opposing angles are filled with cells containing yellow enamel, and the remain two are decorated with cells containing white enamel. The reverse is worn and no evidence of any fittings can be seen.The object was recorded at a metal-detecting rally and unfortunately due to the circumstances the photograph did not come out well.
