Description: | Description: A silver open-frame brooch, the circular frame formed of the necks and heads of four animals. One pair of inward-looking heads flanks the pin hole, through which the intact pin has been looped. The other pair of heads flanks the pin rest, located opposite. Halfway down each side of the brooch is a collet containing a domed inset of an unidentified pink stone or glass. Traces of gilding remain.Discussion: For a very similar brooch, see 2004 T145 from Mildenhall, Suffolk.
