BROOCH

Unique ID: WMID2504

Object type certainty: Probably
Workflow status: Published Find published

The frame is plain and circular in section. The diameter of the frame appears to vary slightly. There is a gap in the frame which has slightly expanded terminals. It is uncertain whether the frame was originally annular and the gap was the joins. The pin has an integral loop and is also circular in section which tapers to a point. The item does not have a patina instead the surface is a matt brown colour. There is a very small patch of a green patina.
