Title |
Anglo Saxon disc brooch |
||
Description |
English: An incomplete, lead-alloy, late Anglo-Saxon, or Anglo-Scandinavian, disc brooch. The brooch is circular in plan and is slightly domed on its front face and concave on the reverse. The front face is decorated with relief moulding, consisting of a circumference of raised pellets and a non-geometric design within it. The area of the central design is subject to a large amount of white, powdery corrosion, probably due to the deterioration of the tin content of the alloy (commonly referred to as 'tin pest'), and is difficult to interpret. On the back of the brooch, the integrally-moulded catch plate survives intact. Opposite this, there are two, integrally-moulded stubs, the remains of the pin loop. This has been broken in antiquity causing the upper part of the pin loop and a small piece of the edge of the brooch to be lost. The back of the brooch is undecorated. Dr Kevin Leahy writes: While corrosion makes the interpretation of the decoration on this brooch difficult its general format follows that of a series of disc brooches which bear Jellinge style motifs, see, for instance the brooch from South Ferriby, Lincolnshire (Leahy, K and Paterson, C 2001, 'New light on the Viking Presence in Lincolnshire' in J. Graham-Campbell, R. Hall, J. Jesch and D. Parsons eds. Vikings and the Danelaw, Select Papers from the Proceedings of the Thirteenth Viking Congress, Oxford, Oxbow, p. 196, Pl. 10.7) |
