Description: | A rectangular single-looped copper alloy shoe buckle (pin now lost). The frame is flattened in section, with the slight curve characteristic of shoe buckles,though it has also suffered some post-depositional deformation. The surface shows indications of tinning.
Most shoe buckles of this form date to the 17th and 18th centuries, and were highly fashionable items. | Subjects: | Shoe | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Ashby, Steven - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
