Description: | An incomplete copper-alloy annular brooch of Medieval date. Approximately a quarter of the circular frame survives, the remainder of the object is missing due to old breaks, now worn.It is curvilinear and D-shaped in section. Two integrally cast conical collets survive, each with a central circular indentation that would have held in place the now missing setting. Between the collets is a rectangular projection. The back face is flat and undecorated.This brooch measures 17.90mm in length, 5.19mm in width, 6.34mm in thickness, 1.40g in weight.There is a similar example from Norwich (Margeson, 1993, p.14, no. 58) and recorded on the PAS database (SF-8E1197), (SF-BD9DC6), (SF-E73D12).
