Description: | Fragment of a gilt copper alloy openwork domed disc, probably the top plate of an Anglo-Scandinavian composite disc brooch. Less than one third of the object is extant. A sinuous animal can be made out amongst the apertures though a certain amount of surface detail has been lost. The decoration is probably in the Urnes style. Cf. Kershaw 2013, 120-1. Diameter 40mm. c.1050 - c.1125.
