Title
Early Early Medieval brooch
Description
English: Incomplete Early Saxon copper alloy Small-long brooch of Leeds 1945 cross pattee derivative type. The upper angles between the arms are round holes while the lower are notches. A pair of parallel engraved grooves marks the end of each arm. At the top and the base of the D-sectioned bow a rectangular panel forms facets. Both are decorated with a pair of transverse grooves. The upper part of the footplate tapers past another pair of grooves. The half-round moulding consists of two broad ribbed mouldings, the upper one with two more grooves which have been largely lost to wear. There is no spatulate terminal, the present end being the carefully smoothed lower ribbed moulding. The loss of the terminal must have nbeen contemporary with the use of the brooch. On the reverse a single pin lug retains a small part of the iron spring and the catchplate is intact. Length 63.2mm. Width 30.5mm. c.480 - c.500 AD.
