Description: | Copper alloy buckle dating to 11th century. The buckle frame is square shaped with a narrow bar. The part of the frame opposite the bar is wider and decorated. The decoration is worn but could be a leaf or knot design (possibly Viking Borre style) at the top and bottom with a notch for the pin between. The front decorated face of the buckle has evidence of gilding whilst the reverse of the buckle has been silvered or tinned although only part of this surface treatment survives. The buckle weighs 5.5g and measures 22mm in width, 21.5mm in length and 4.2mm in thickness. | Subjects: | Anglo-Scandinavian Viking | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Marshall, Anna - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
