Copper alloy equal-ended plate brooch. The brooch has a rectangular central plate, which is silvered and inlaid with a floral motif consisting of three leaves either side of a central stem. It is unclear whether the inlay is dark blue enamel, or a dark bluish or black metal such as niello. The copper alloy hinged pin is extant. Brooches of this type are dated by Hattatt (2000) to the 2nd century AD, although this brooch is clearly related to Hod Hill brooches such as Hattatt's no.864, which he dates to the 1st century AD.
