Description: | A decoratively moulded cast copper alloy rectangular shoe buckle. The buckle has a drilled frame, separate spindle and a studded chape and tongue. A large amount of iron staining survives on the frame, indicating where the pin was once positioned.
The frame is complete but the pin missing. The metal is a mid greenish-brown colour, but most of the original surface has been lost. These buckles date from circa 1690 - 1720. Parallels for this type of buckle can be seen in Whitehead, 2003, p102. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | WALKER, Liz - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
