Title
Cruciform Brooch
Description
English: Knob from a cruciform brooch, half-round and hollow on the reverse. The base is broken, so there is no evidence that it was made separately, and there is no evidence for the presence of an iron pin bar. It is therefore probably a top knob. The metal is very thin at the break, but immediately above there is a chunky moulding, then a waisted area, then a rounded half-hemisphere terminal.
