Fibule

Dijon (21) - Musée archéologique

[VIDE]

Fibula in the form of an openwork "rouelle". The central part describes a cross with four grooved branches, the heart of which has a more or less square base and bears a conical-headed knob. The rim is adorned with sixteen approximately square glass paste inlays. Three colors were used: white, red and possibly green. Four "vegetal" or median-pointed outgrowths develop around the edge of the fibula, in line with the branches of the central cross (M.-A. Widehen, 2015).
