Description: | A cast copper alloy Roman lozenge shaped plate brooch, dating to the second century AD. The brooch has a rectangular panel running down the centre of the lozenge, and this has inside it three square panels that retain traces of red enamel. Two triangular panels of red enamel flank the central panel. The brooch has two lugs situated at either end of the rectangular panel that also form part of the pin mechanism. On the reverse of the broch, only part of the hinge loop and ctachplate survive.This brooch is similar to those in Hattatt's Visual Catalogue (2007:348), although no direct comparison was made.
