Description: | Copper alloy Brooch Sheet metal plate in the form of a Spade from a pack of cards, with a drawn wire four coil spring and pin with hooked end brazed to the back. The spring is set at the top of the plate; the stalk of the Spade is perforated and now ragged, probably from loss of a catch plate. This would appear to have been made in a craft rather than an industrial setting, probably as a 'one off' item of personalised trinket jewellery. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1850-1900.Height: 22.6mm, Width: 23.8mm, Thickness (plate): 0.3mm, Weight: 0.76gms.
