Description: | Part of a copper-alloy clasp (or possibly a buckle). The frame is single-looped and oval in shape it is 22mm in length and 19mm in width. The inner edge of the frame is a straight bar which is recessed for the plate, however, the outside edge is unusual as it is formed by a thicker rectangular bar measuring 18mm in width. This outer edge is also decorated, on the front face only, with three longtitudinal grooves which have three zig-zag grooves over them. This part of the buckle is similar to a clasp in Egan and Pritchard (1991, p119, fig28, no, 568) although this parallel is a lot more ornate, it too has a wider decorated outer edge, it was found attached to a folded plate and dates to the late 13th to early 15th century. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Minter, Faye - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
