Copper alloy headstud brooch with a hinge pin (still intact). There is a broken wire headloop above the crossbar; this has been pinched in by a heavy rectangular collar. The collar has the remains of possibly white enamel around three lozenge-shaped bosses. A longitudinal crest is located immediately below the collar and above the headstud which appears as a conical perforation in the bow. Lozenge-shaped blue enamel cells run down the front of the bow, below the headstud. The foot of the brooch is now broken, as is the catchplate.

Copper alloy headstud brooch, dating to the second century. The head of the brooch shows the attachment of a hinge pin, now missing. The crossbar has three sub-rectangular cells to either side of the bow, probably for taking enamel. The bow also has sub-rectangular cells for enamel; these become gradually smaller as they approach the foot of the brooch. The last cell, approximately 25mm above the foot, is in the shape of an inverted spear-head. The foot knob is undecorated. On the reverse of the object, the catchplate is present, but incomplete.

Roman copper alloy headstud brooch. The object is quite corroded, but there are traces of enamel in places. The head hides a tubular crossbar that accommodates a hinge pin (now missing). The headstud shows some traces of heavily damaged enamel in a conical hollow; this is inferred from a hole in the reverse which reflects the form of other headstuds. The bow is rectangular in section, and a trace of blue enamel shows that the decoration probably consisted of rectangular enamel cells that became smaller as they approached the foot. The remains of the foot show a lip at the base wit…
