Description: | Incomplete copper alloy medieval buckle with an oval frame. The pin is missing and the object covered in a green patina. The outside side edge is slightly wider in the centre, although this widening is not symmetrical. The corrosion means it is difficult to say whether the frame had a notch for the pin. The frame and bar are rectangular in cross section. It measures 12x14mm and weighs 0.57g.
It is similar in outline, though smaller than and without an angled outside edge, to 264 in Egan and Pritchard (1991, plate 41), which dates from c.1350-c.1400. Other examples of simple oval frames in Egan and Prtichard (1991) date from between c.1330-c.1450. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Wood, Rachel | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
