Description: | An incomplete cast copper alloy double loop trapezoidal shaped buckle, with elaborately moulded decorations on the loops. Only one whole loop survives intact, with only part of the second loop.
The frame is rectangular with rounded knops on each external corner and wedge shaped trefoils at either end of the strap bar and on the outer edge of each loop.
The copper alloy pin is missing and there is no pin recess.
The metal has lost most of its original surface and the metal is a mid greyish-green colour and is pitted.
This type of buckle dates from circa 1350 ?? 1700. Parallels for this type of buckle can be seen in Whitehead, 2003, p73, No: 529. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | WALKER, Liz - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
