Description: | A copper-alloy open-frame brooch of Medieval date (cf Egan and Pritchard 1991: 248-249/fig. 160, no. 1307).The brooch is of very simple form, consisting of a plain ring and an attached wire pin. The frame is of circular section and of equal diameter throughout most of its circumference, the only exception being at the narrower pin constriction. The slightly bent pin has been made from a flattened length of copper-alloy wire. It is looped around the pin constriction, its point resting on the opposite side of the frame. The object measures 16.5mm in diameter, 3mm thick and weighs 0.9g.
