Description: | An unusual form of early Roman brooch. The brooch has a sprung head encased by a cylinder. At 90 degrees from the centre of the head extends a wide arched bow, D-shaped in cross-section and decorated with two large globular mouldings separated by a small rib. The moulding might be a 'lion-on-bow', such as illsutrated in Hattat's Visual Catalogue of Roman Brooches p.307.
