Description: | An incomplete cast copper-alloy double looped trapezoidal shaped buckle, with pointed ends. Lobed knops survive on either end of the strap bar. One of the loops is broken and only survives as one edge of the loop. The outer edges of the frame are bevelled.
The pin is missing, but patches of iron staining survive on the strap bar and the surviving loop, presumably from an iron pin ?? which has corroded away.
The metal is pitted and is a mid greyish-green colour.
These buckles date from circa 1570 -1700. Simpler types of buckles can be seen in Whitehead (2003), p82, No. 512-4. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Clifford, Trista - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
