Description: | Buckle with integral back plate, length 35mm, width 20mm, thickness 2mm. Rectangular buckle, the forward edge of the frame is much finer in compression to the rest of the frame, forward edge is 1.5mm wide, the arms are 3mm wide. The plate gently narrows from the back of the buckle 15mm long, to a bar at the terminal, there is a collar with moulded decoration either side separating the base of the narrowed section with the bar. Behind the buckle is a circular hole for the pin (5mm diameter) and behind this is a semicircular non-functional decorative hole (6mm by 6mm). There are the remains of a circular hole at the terminal which would have been a rivet hole, this section is broken at the id point of the rivet hole. The edges have a series of low spikes giving a serrated appearance.
Similar, although less spiked examples date from 1250-1400. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Adams, Kurt - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
