Title
LANCUM-895BF2: Early Roman trumpet brooch with enamelled decoration
Description
English: Incomplete cast cu-alloy trumpet brooch dating from the early Roman period, i.e. c. AD75-175. The brooch misses its spring coils, pin and most of the catch plate. The slightly bent bow and the loop which held in place the spring coils are still intact. The brooch's metal surface is very corroded, especially on top, the front and the underside of the bow. Much of the surface, however, remains intact on the head and back of the bow which are decorated with intricate enamelled decoration. Red, white (or light blue) and yellow enamel were used to fill small triangle-, tear- and eye-shaped fields to create white (or light blue) trefoils on either side of the main ridge, surrounded by a design of red enamel (see close-up image). The central ridge seems to have been decorated with mainly yellow enamel.
