Description
A bronze pseudo-bow brooch or modified trumpet brooch in which the pin is hinged between 2 lugs behind a flat semi-circular headplate which has the remains of a broken loop at the top. The bowis reminiscent of some Knee brooches but is much narrower at the top and swells to a tripartite moulding in the centre. The foot is narrow and plain with a sharply turned out terminal moulding. The catchplate is small and triangular unlike those of knee brooches. There is a cylindrical hollow behind the central moulding. 3.6 cm length
