The brooch has seven rounded projections (lobes) arranged equidistantly. On each of these lobes a collar of copper-alloy strip has been soldered. Inset into these collars is a sphere of translucent glass; only four remain and they are dark blue. On the main body of the brooch a collar (again copper-alloy strip) has been soldered, and inset into this is the cloisonné enamel disc. The pattern comprises two quatrefoils, one in the centre and one outer one. The lobes of the outer one emerge at the junctions between the lobes of the central one. Each lobe is a pointed oval cell. The central quatrefoil is opaque pale blue glass and the external quatrefoil is alternate red and yellow opaque glass. The surface of the one of the red cells is partially missing revealing dark blue glass underneath. The space around the quatrefoils is filled with dark blue glass. The cell work is copper alloy and may originally have been gilded, but there is no trace of the gilding now. Large areas of gilding are still present; even on the twin lugs either side of the spring and the catchplate. On the reverse of the brooch the original pin is missing but there is a lump of iron corrosion near the twin lugs. A silver pin is now in place, probably a replacement to the original iron pin. The brooch is very similar to one found at Feltwell, Norfolk (Buckton 1986:9 fig.1 no. 6) in form but the enamel design slightly differs. The silver pin is unlikely to constitute 10% of the entire object as such it does not fall under the 1996 Treasure Act. Diameter: 19.51mm including the lobes: 24.47mm; thickness: 9.22mm; weight: 5.75g. Buckton, David. 1985. Late 10th-and 11th-century cloisonne enamel brooches. Medieval Archaeology vol. XXX.

The brooch measures 31mm in diameter and the obverse is decorated with a curvilinear Jellinge-style design, possibly depicting a stylised bird with large feet and wings outstretched. This is set within a thin border (1.9 mm thick). It is likely that the obverse of the brooch would have once been enamelled or gilded. The reverse has two pierced lugs on which the pin would have hinged and a third lug opposite which would have served as a catch plate for the pin. There is a third element to the reverse, which is a third lug, situated at a right angle to hinge mechanism and catchplate. This lug is also pierced, giving it the appearance of a suspension loop. Helen Geake has noted the presence of these lugs on late Early-Medieval brooches (Geake 2001, 24) and has acknowledged that the use of this feature is currently unclear, and that it may be a safety mechanism, or that it may enable the brooch to be worn as a pendant. The presence of this feature on this example is a further indicator that it is of a late Early-Medieval date.

The Terslev motif is explained by Caroline Paterson in her article 'From Pendants to Brooches: the exchange of Borre and Jellinge style motifs across the North Sea' Hikuin 29 (2002) pp. 267-276, at pp. 269-70. 'The Terslev motif is named after the ornament displayed on a group of elaborate silver pendants from Zealand. This motif is composed of three or four volutes, symmetrically arranged and positioned back-to-back, thereby creating either a triangle or a lozenge in their respective centres.The volutes are frequently bound by a closed ring, creating a ring-knot commonly ascribed to the Borre style.Although the Terslev motif was present in European art from the Roman period onwards, it experienced a floruit during the mid-tenth century when it was applied to a series of high-status filigree and granulation pendants, which may have been directly associated with Danish royal power.Humbler versions of the motif appear on mass-produced, cast copper-alloy pendants and brooches of Scandinavian origin, with mould fragments from Hedeby testifying to production of several variants at this site.'

It is a slightly irregular disc, 29-30 mm in diameter, and is slightly convex. In the centre there is a double ridged circle, and around this are Borre-style ring-knots. Three radiating rectangles alternate with three quadrilaterals, which have three concave edges and one convex edge, the latter nearest to the rim of the brooch. The outer corners of the quadrilaterals each extend to form a double ribbon; the inner corners are extended to link up with the inner corners of the rectangles. The double ribbons loop downwards and inwards over this link and then upwards and outwards, over themselves and underneath the rectangles, where they join the next double ribbon. The rim is beaded. The beading has worn off in a number of places and the double ribbon has also worn smooth in places; it is also possible that the rectangles and the quadrilaterals may originally have had some dot decoration. On the reverse is a transverse pin lug encrusted with the corroded remains of the iron pin, and a catchplate; there is no suspension loop. The Borre style was used both by Scandinavian craftsmen of the late 9th and 10th century and Anglo-Scandinavian craftsmen of the 10th century. The circular design based on groups of three (rather than four) repeating elements, as well as the slightly domed shape, points to this brooch being a Scandinavian form.

The decoration consists of a stylised ribbon animal with prominent foreleg, and hindquarters that appear to loop downwards before dividing into two tendril extensions which bifurcate around the main body, which has numerous other tendrils interlacing around it. Some of the latter probably belong to a thread-like snake which appears to cross the main beast's foreleg. Its head is upturned and faces towards the main animal's head. The main creature's head is downward-turned and characterised by a raised ear, elongated almond-shaped eye and open jaws, with a protruding upper lip. The smoothly tapering lines and multi-loop scheme of this openwork brooch with its dominant stylised animal interlacing with tendril extensions and a probable snake or two identify it with the Scandinavian Urnes style. The interlacing scheme is similar to that of several of the Urnes-style brooches which were mass-produced within Scandinavia. A workshop for the type has been excavated in Lund (A. W. Mårtensson, Uppgrät förflutet för PKbanken i Lund, Archaeologica Lundensia, 7 (Lund 1976), 207). Excavated finds provide a date range from the mid eleventh century to the mid twelfth. Finds of the type are common in Skåne, and Denmark, particularly Jutland. The Walcott brooch, however, appears to be the only example to have been recovered from the British Isles (although there is an unprovenanced example in the British Museum: accession no. BM 1982,6-2,1). There are very few imported Urnes-style artefacts in England (O. Owen 2001, 'The strange beast that is the English Urnes style', 203-222 in J. Graham-Campbell et al. Vikings and the Danelaw, 205). Such a brooch could well have been used as a model from which Anglo-Scandinavian interpretations of the Urnes style were made. Scandinavian openwork Urnes-style brooch.
