Bow Fibulae

Cleveland Museum of Art

Two gold and silver fibulae, or brooches, with a cross-like shape. The top of each piece features a semi-circle with five protrusions extending from it, two on either side and one at the top; the protrusions are rounded at the ends. The semi-circle has a patterned design. The lower portion of each piece is rectangular with a long vertical groove down the center; the rectangle has a triangular pattern along the sides. The background is black at the top and fades to gray at the bottom. The fibulae are titled "Bow Fibulae".
