Description: | A complete cast copper alloy double looped buckle frame. The buckle is trapezoidal in shape with moulded decoration of the frame. Triangular shaped ??pointed ends?? decorated the short edges of the frame, whilst rounded knops decorate the corners. The edges are chamfered. There is a notch for the pin on the outside edge of each loop, where it expands into the triangular pointed end. The pin survives intact. The surface is a mid silvery-grey and pitted and is possibly tinned. This item dates to the post-medieval period, circa 1620-1680. Parallels for this type of buckle can be seen in Whitehead, 2003, p83. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Andrews-Wilson, Liz - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
