Spectacle brooch
The spectacle brooch was an ancient fibula from the late European Bronze Age and early Iron Age, primarily worn by adult women of higher social rank.[1] One form of the spectacle brooch originates from the Illyrians and consists of two concentrically wound spirals attached to a pin.[2]
