Description: | An incomplete cast copper alloy (and possibly tinned) sub-rectangular shoe buckle with a drilled frame for a separate spindle, dating to the 17th/ early 18th century AD (length: 26.3mm; width: 24.9mm; thickness: 3.8mm; weight: 4.58g). Part of the outer frame is broken and incomplete as well as part of the pin missing. The copper alloy stud is also slightly broken. Overall, the buckle is in a worn and poor condition with a dark green patina. There are some small areas of bronze disease and the artefact appears to have been coated in a substance. Similar examples are illustrated in Ross Whitehead??s ??Buckles 1250-1800??, 1996, pages 102-3. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Johnson, Caroline - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
