The Strickland Brooch. Anglo-Saxon, mid-9th CE. An outstanding feature of this silver disc brooch is the extensive use of gold in its decoration with a lively pattern of dog-like animals (complete with collars!) deeply carved into the silver to form an openwork effect. These animals fill a quatrefoil where the lobes are divided by animal heads seen from above. Silver and gold, diam. 11.2 cm. Inv. 1949,0702.1.
