Part of a copper alloy circular brooch which is Early Medieval in date. The brooch is a flat disc with a raised ropework rim. The front of the disc and the rim is gilt. It is broken and the surviving fragment is 18.3mm long, 12.9mm wide and 5.8mm thick. There is a hole in the centre of the disc through which fits a small copper alloy and undecorated rivet which has also survived. The reverse of the disc is plain copper alloy with a dark brown patina. A double pin lug survives but not the pin. The brooch probably dates from the Early Anglo-Saxon period.

Scandinavian copper alloy disc brooch. The brooch is decorated with an openwork Jellinge-style design of an interlacing animal (see NMS-7446E3 and ESS-4D7A85 for other examples of this style). On the reverse there are the remains of the pin lug and catchplate. The pin is missing. There is also part of the suspension loop which the wearer could have passed a chain through to wear the brooch as a pendant.

Early medieval brooch: A Late Anglo-Saxon/Viking Age copper alloy cloisonné disc brooch with six (possibly originally seven) lobes and enamelled decoration. The projecting lobes have sunken terminals, presumably originally inlaid with enamel or glass. This technique is known in several other brooches of this type, and is thought to imitate more costly gold jewllery, which was often inlaid with perals and gemstones. The body of the brooch consists of a flat baseplate and raised central collar, the latter describing the edge of the ornamented central area. Sitting on top of the coll…

Small cast copper alloy bow brooch, with sub-triangular headplate and footplate. The brooch is similar to examples of small equal-armed brooches, although this example is not symmetrical, the headplate being slightly shorter than the footplate. It is thus also very similar to examples of miniature radiate-headed brooches, and perhaps sits somewhere between the two types. The reverse has remains of the iron pin and spring surviving, possibly with traces of mineralised textile preserved in the corrosion products. Compare IOW-FE1124, and an example from a 6th-century grave at Frilford…

An incomplete copper-alloy early Anglo-Saxon small long brooch, missing the flat panel and foot as well as the pin. Measuring 37.99mm in length and 30.74mm in width across the head. The head has three crescent-shaped knobs, the front face has grooves delimiting the head plate and there is a pair of grooves across the base of each knob. The bow is faceted and has transverse grooves at its top and a pair down the centre of the bow. There is a pin loop in the centre of the back face of the head and there is corroded iron within it, presumably the remains of the pin.
