Description: | An enamelled copper-alloy umbonate brooch dating to the early Roman period. The brooch is circular in plan, domed and has four worn knops spaced evenly around the perimeter. One of the knops is enlarged, pierced and forms a chain loop. Inside the perimeter of the brooch there is a deep channel. The domed surface is decorated with two bands of triangular cells containing enamel. The enamel is very degraded but appears to have been alternating red and blue cells. There is an enamelled ring and dot motif in the centre. There is a lug and catchplate on the reverse. The pin is missing.
