Description: | A rectangular double-looped cast copper alloy buckle, probably of seventeenth century date. The buckle has a simple rectangular frame, around 6mm wide, with narrowed central strap bar, 3mm wide, and a slightly bevelled outer edge. The upper side of the frame is decorated with punched crescents, circles and groups of short parallel lines. The reverse is flat and undecorated. In Whitehead's 'Buckles 1250-1800', frames of similar size and shape are dated between 1575 and 1700, and buckles with similar decoration are dated to between c. 1620 and c. 1680. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Payne, Naomi - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
