Broken fibre seal - it sticks out a bit (9)
I believe the answer is:
basrelief
'it sticks out a bit' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.
'broken fibre seal' is the wordplay.
'broken' is an anagram indicator.
'fibre'+'seal'='fibreseal'
'fibreseal' with letters rearranged gives 'BASRELIEF'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for basrelief that I've seen is " Sculpture".)
I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
