Strickland Brooch : ウィキペディア英語版 | Strickland Brooch
The Strickland Brooch is an Anglo-Saxon silver and niello brooch dated to the mid 9th century, now held by the British Museum.〔(British Museum Highlights )〕 Although its exact provenance is unknown, it is regarded by scholars as a rare and important artefact from the early mediaeval period in England. ==Description== The Strickland Brooch is similar in appearance to the Fuller Brooch, also held by the British Museum. Both brooches are circular in shape, made from sheet silver and inlaid with niello and gold. The Strickland Brooch is decorated with highly complex zoomorphic patterns that are deeply carved within the quatrefoil, whereas the Fuller Brooch is ornamented in a more anthropomorphic style. In the case of the Strickland Brooch, the design includes a series of Trewhiddle style dogs interspersed between canine-like heads.
