Title
Early Early Medieval: Incomplete Style I brooch or Mount
Description
English: An incomplete gilded silver brooch or mount dating to the late fifth to early sixth centuries. Less than 25% of the artefact survives. It has a curving edge and is decorated with Salin's Style I ornament on the front, comprising a human mask beside a spiral. Beneath this is a row of beading. The reverse is plain.

The artefact was tested using a Mistral tabletop XRF machine to determine its elemental composition. The results are as follows:
