A cast Borre-style disc brooch. The worn surface decoration consists of four interlaced double-contoured C-shaped knots. Inside each C is a lozenge formed by four single strands of interlace, within which is a smaller lozenge separated into four equal-sized cells. At the centre of the brooch is a plain lozenge formed between the four C-shaped knots. At three of the corners of this central lozenge, the brooch is completely worn through. This may indicate that the brooch had a domed profile, which would have resulted in increased wear in this central area. On the reverse are only fragmen…
