Second century, Roman zoomorphic brooch in the form of a seated greyhound. The overall form of the brooch is reminiscent of a Romano-British Dragonesque booch. The brooch is finely cast and the bronze surface has been tinned to give a silver finish. The tinning covers the whole front surface and extends onto the rim of the hollow cast back. The original was found in the uk.
Available in Bronze or tin plated bronze (as original)
