Description: | Copper alloy shoe or knee buckle, 25mm long and 16mm wide. The buckle is dated 1660-1720 and were used largely as decoration. It is slightly rounded overall to curve around the body. It is rectangular in shape and has semi-circular protrusions on each side. The buckle is decorated with radiating incised lines on these protrusions. From here the surface is cut away forming a rounded depression running vertically along the frame. This becomes a ridge on the inner edge of the buckle. The buckle has a thick bar with short triangular pin still attached. It also has a plate attached to the bar which would have been used to fix it to the shoe or clothing. | Subjects: | Shoe or Knee | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
