Arched Fibulae (2 of 2)

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows an ancient bronze fibula, titled "Arched Fibulae (2 of 2)" by an unknown artist. The fibula is made of bronze and has a green patina. It is shaped like a curved rectangle with a pin on the left side. The top and bottom of the fibula are decorated with small and large domed rivets. The large rivets on the top and bottom are surrounded by smaller ones. The fibula has a long pin attached to it, which is used to fasten clothing. The background of the image is a light gray color. The fibula casts a shadow on the background. The overall appearance of the fibula suggests that it is an ancient artifact, possibly from the Roman or Celtic period.
