Title
An Early Medieval copper alloy equal armed brooch.
Description
English: An incomplete Early Medieval copper-alloy ansate brooch dating from 700-1000 AD. The brooch appears to have been in contact with fire, so many of the details are unclear. The brooch has an angled bow-shaped profile, with a fan-shaped protrusion at either end. There is moulded decoration encirculing the bow at its roundest point. The reverse of the brooch is convex and there are the remains of the catch plate at one end. Similar examples can be seen in Hattatt (2000) p380. The brooch is 41.4mm long, 9.3mm wide, 4.3mm thick and weighs 9.9g.
