Title |
Roman zoomorphic brooch |
||
Description |
English: An apparently complete (although possibly missing a tail) Roman copper alloy and enamel zoomorphic plate brooch in the form of a boar, of continental form and dating from the 2nd century AD. It measures 33.37x26.25x10.26mm and weighs 7.45g. The body is rectangular in section (3.51mm thick) and filled with three enamel-filled dots (the outer two blue, the central one red). The underneath of the belly is at an angle, while the top of the back has a slight curve which extends into the rump, D-shaped in cross-section and 4.45mm thick. This is decorated with five enamel-filled dots, four red in square formation around a central blue one. Hattatt comments this type of enamelling (round hollows filled with enamel) is typical of French enamelling (Cf. Hattatt 1194 and 1196 for similarly-decorated brooches of different zoomorphic form). |
