Complete annular brooch. The brooch does not have a restriction for the pin, however it is well decorated suggesting that it is a brooch rather than an annular buckle. The frame is oval in cross-section and has a series of moulded reels, each decorated with two incised lines. The pin is copper alloy and collared with a tapering shank.
