Description: | A cast copper alloy single looped oval buckle, with an ornate outer edge. The buckle frame has a pin recess on the outer edge. The strap bar is narrow and off-set. The pin is missing.
The folded buckle plate remains in situ, around the strap bar. The plate measures 26mm x 13.40mm. Traces of gilding survive on the front plate. On the reverse of the back plate there is a rivet. There is a rivet hole on the back hole.
The metal is a dark brownish-green colour.
These buckles date from circa AD 1250 - 1400.
Parallels for this type of buckle can be seen in Whitehead, 2003, p23. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | WALKER, Liz - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
