Item Details
Description
Roman Britain, ca. 43 to 410 CE. This is a pair of two beautiful bronze fibulae / brooches. These items were used to fasten the ubiquitous clothing item of cold, damp Roman Britain -- the cloak. Both show the particular influence of Celtic artwork on Roman British artifacts, especially the more delicate of the two which suggests an animal head in its shape. Size of largest: 2" L x 1.1" W (5.1 cm x 2.8 cm).
