Description: | A copper-alloy buckle frame with an integral frame. 51mm in length. The frame is oval-shaped and measures 14mm by 11mm in size. There is a circular perforation for the pin, which is now missing, through the plate, which tapers slightly in its middle. The plate also has two rivets, one at either end, and terminates in a hook, which is straight and tapers to a point. Traces of gilding can be seen on the front face of the plate. A similar oval frame with integral plate is in the Ashmolean Museum, it and buckles and plates with hooked terminals are dated to the 14th century and have been discovered on spurs (Egan and Pritchard 1991, 78). | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Minter, Faye - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
