Record ID: CORN-842694
Object type: BEAD
Broad period: ROMAN
County: Cornwall
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Glass cobalt blue bead, worn and pitted with mottled colouration within the glass. The bead is circular in plan and ovoid in profile, with a cylindrical central perforation and a lip on the edge of the hole, which shows that the molten glass would have been twisted and rolled around a central rod during its manufacture. Crummy (1983) illustrates a similar short oblate bead on page 33, Fig.34, No.562, which is dated from the post-Roman period. Roman beads in stratified local contexts are rare, but examples of blue glass beads have been found at Trethurgy, St. Austell and are illustrate…

Broad period: ROMAN

Fragment of a cast copper alloy hinged T-shaped enamelled type brooch with just the head and bow remaining. There are slight projections on either side of the head, which are the remains of the short wings, and a slot at the back of the head, which would have held the hinge for the pin, now missing. The foot and catchplate are also missing. The head has an incised curvilinear edge, just inside the break, which may be part of the base of a head loop. The bow is angled away from the head at almost a right angle, and has several recessed lozenges or ovoids at the front which probably ori…

Object type: BROOCH
Broad period: ROMAN
County: Cornwall
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Incomplete cast copper alloy Roman T-shaped or Colchester type brooch with spring mechanism. The terminals of both wings have broken and the back has also corroded away revealing the copper alloy sprung mechanism still within the tubular sections and part of the hinge survives in the middle. The pin, the foot and catchplate are all missing. The head and bow appear to be plain but are corroded and pitted and have patches of carbonised material, suggesting perhaps that the brooch may have been part of a cremation.
Hattatt (2000) illustrates a similar sprung T-shaped brooch with a p…
