Description

A single arched metal object, a bronze fibula, seen from the side. Its thick bow curves over and its two ends splay out into flattened, foot-like terminals. The surface is pitted and dark in patches, with lighter areas where the corrosion is worn, and the object stands out against a plain pale background.
