T-shaped brooch with enamel ornament. A cylindrical crossbar decorated with vertical ribbing, houses the axial bar which holds the 9-turn spring. The chord is held by a cast lug on the head in the developed polden manner. The bow is ornamented with two rectangular strips of enamel, of which only small traces remain. Below these panels are two molded lobs at a slight diagonal to each other, and a medial groove extends to the plain moulded foot.
Lug largely missing and pin broken.
