Description: | Early post medieval copper alloy buckle with (very thin) wire pin.
The buckle measures 25.3mm in length, is max.16.6mm wide and is 2.5mm thick. It weighs 2.77g.
At one end of the buckle is a rectangular projection, 7.5x11.2mm (internal 3.5x7.4mm). To one long side of this extends the roughly circular loop of the buckle, with petals surrounding it on all its external edges. These have rounded edges, except for that at the lip, which is pointed and triangular in shape. The internal diameter of the loop is 8.7mm.
Between the loop and the rectangular projection is a 1.6mm diameter piercing for the wire pin, 0.6mm diameter in section.
Probably Tudor in date, and similar in style to hooked tags of the period. 16th century. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Hinds, Katie - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
