Circular disc; copper alloy, cast; the front chased and gilt. On the front, five empty circular settings for gemstones: one large central setting and four smaller settings at the cardinal points close to the rim. The brooch is pierced adjacent to 3 of the 4 perimeter settings by 3 small holes, indicating re-use; the holes of similar size and near-identical placement, each pierced clockwise of its setting through the top of the outermost interlace panels and just inside the circular perimeter border. Around the central setting there are three concentric circles of small rectangular punch marks, outside which is a zone of interlacing animal ornament of the so-called Germanic Style II, comprising a procession of four interlocked animals, edged by three more concentric circles Beyond these is a border of four panels of different highly-stylized interlace ornament representing the undulating body of a snake-like creature, whose jaws are clamped around itself. The panels are separated by the four smaller circular mounts and edged by two concentric punched bands. The reverse is undecorated. 4 short projections behind the centre of each gem setting represent the base of rivets: the longest in the centre plus three shallow stubs behind the perimeter settings. A fifth rivet is missing: the fourth perimeter setting has a central squarish hole with rounded corners where a rivet has come out. reference exhibition-2011 adlib-exhibition-2011 6ab3f0fa-beaa-3504-9167-ea146427893a Anglo-Saxon Art in the Round reference exhibition-2087 adlib-exhibition-2087 7206cf89-cc32-3dab-b82e-fa465895359c Anglo-Saxon Art in the Round (2) reference exhibition-2104 adlib-exhibition-2104 271bcf1a-4913-32db-8780-091f10a28bc8 anglo-Saxon Art in the Round (3) M.11-2006 1 accession number M.11-2006 134029 priref 134029 uri https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/id/object/134029 https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/id/object/134029 stuck onto the reverse, but removed after accession printed in black 2208 label stuck onto the reverse hand-written in black ink 96.61 label reference agent-149638 adlib-agent-149638 7376d833-d0a7-3be0-916e-9c892b7a24d8 The Fitzwilliam Museum Given by the Friends of the Fitzwilliam Museum reference agent-149645 adlib-agent-149645 10925b71-6838-30f7-a8dd-b68a2afaa14d The Friends of the Fitzwilliam Museum 2006 2006 2006-10-09 given Entry date: 2006-10-09 600 600 CE 600 circa 0600 700 1 700 CE 700 0700 production reference agent-149652 adlib-agent-149652 0d4f90dc-b166-3d4b-b0db-25f4118b6e98 Unknown The mount is comparable to the pair with interlace ornament from Allington Hill, Cambridgeshire (now in the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford, and the Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology, Cambridge). The five settings are empty, but would originally have held decorative bosses, which would have been made from shell or bone, and may have had a small garnet roundel in the middle. The interlacing ornament is of exceptionally fine execution, and the outer zone is of unusual layout. reference term-108624 adlib-term-108624 f1664a26-5342-3e07-a4a2-1d01bc7120a4 7th Century reference
