H. M. Geake (NCM) identified:
Roman beautiful glass centre-boss brooch. Oval, it has a raised edge (now rather abraded) around a broad flat gilded border decorated with S-shaped stamps. In the centre is a conical glass setting within a raised collar; the glass is a dark maroon with white spots and, swirling out from the centre, a band or yellow with a bright red stripe down the centre. The reverse has a catchplate and a single bar lug, and is covered with a white-metal coating. It is rare to find one of these brooches with the glass intact, and rarer still to find one with multi-coloured glass. 2nd century AD.
Polaroid (S1) taken.
K. Hinds (NAU) 21 June 2000.
