Title
Roman : Trumpet Brooch
Description
English: An incomplete copper-alloy Trumpet brooch of Roman date, c. AD 75 - 175. The head is D-shaped with an integral double lug hinge mechanism to the reverse through which an axis bar is retained. The pin no longer remains.

An ovate bow extends from the front of the head, extending to a semi-circular acanthus moulding flanked by triple banded semi-circular collars. The bow continues with a D-shaped section below the lower collar and terminates in a stepped circular foot-knop. The remains of a catchplate project from the reverse.

The metal has a mid-green patina and is in fair condition. The brooch is 44.4mm long, 14.7mm wide, 5.1mm thick and weighs 9.8g.

Similar examples are illustrated in Hattatt, p.326, fig.185 and are dated to circa AD 75 - 175.
