The brooch consists of solid circular wings with a central recess holding mots of a pin. The bow emerges from the centre of this and has a curved (fanned) upper edge which narrows into a rectangular form. Its surface is decorated with vertical ridges. The brooch has snapped, leaving about two thirds of its original length. The pin is stuck to the reverse of the bow and is the same length. The brooch is similar to 269, Fig165 in Hattatt, R.
