Description: | A cast copper alloy double looped asymmetrical buckle, with an intact strap bar.
One loop is rectangular, with six lobed knops on the outer edge, the other is rounded with lobed knops on the outer edge. The frame has a chamfered front edge and a flat reverse.
The frame is uninterrupted; so therefore has no pin recess. The pin is missing, but a lump of iron indicates where it once was. The metal has lost most of its original surface and the metal is a mid greenish-brown colour.
This type of buckle dates from circa 1575 ?? 1700.
Parallels for this type of buckle can be seen in Whitehead, 2003, p92. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Andrews-Wilson, Liz - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
