Description: | An incomplete cast copper alloy double-looped oval buckle, dating to the 15th/ 16th century AD (length: 24mm; width: 19mm; thickness: 3mm; weight: 2.55g). A slightly uneven buckle with remains of probable black lacquer on the front and back surfaces, these artefact has a narrowed strap bar (with the pin completely missing) in across the centre and slightly wider outside edges for decoration. The front face of the buckle is slightly rounded, whilst being completely flat on the back. Overall, the buckle is in a worn and corroded condition with small areas of bronze disease around the edges. Similar examples are illustrated in Egan & Pritchard??s ??Dress Accessories c 1150 ?? c 1450??, 2002, pages 82-3, ref nos 333-339. | Subjects: | double looped | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Johnson, Caroline - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
