Title
Early medieval equal armed Brooch
Description
English: Central boss of an Early Medieval Scandinavian Equal-Armed copper alloy brooch. It has gilt on the surface and the boss is topped with a knop. The domed boss is hollow and thins out either side before flaring out to the terminals. These are missing. It has a dark grey hue with a light green patina and decorated with criss-crossing lines and spiral grooves. It measures 33.81mm x 19.23mm x 12.79mm, and weighs 7.62g. This brooch can be classified as a Type III A:1 (as by Aagard in Birka II.1). Its decoration an be described as a Borre style animal with gripping arms or legs. There is a close parallel to this in 'A corpus of Anglo-Saxon material from Suffolk' by Stanley West (p.114).
