The brooch measures 54.34mm in length and weighs 6.19grams.The tubular wingspan is 20.99mm, and the wings are seemingly undecorated and filled with corrosion. To the reverse is a slot which held the pin.The bow is 7.80mm at its widest, D-shaped in cross-section, and extends from the top of the wings, tapering down to a broken terminus 2.64mm in width. The bow is decorated with a raised vertical ridge with two flanking grooves, and is bent upwards in the middle where it is circular in cross-section.The incomplete catchplate is broadly triangular in plan, and is broken off at the end, leaving only the bow.
