Description: | An incomplete cast copper alloy buckle. In plan the buckle is a ??D?? shape with a second integral rectangular loop adjoining the original vertical bar of the frame. The interior bar has a central indention to keep the pin in place, however the pin is now missing. The apex of the frame has a square notch. The frame is sub-oval in section whereas the two vertical bars are sub-rectangular in section. The surface is mottled with an incomplete dark green patina. It measures 22.72mm long and 23.03mm wide. It weighs 2.1g and is in fair condition.
Egan and Pritchard (Egan and Pritchard 2002 Dress Accessories Boydell Press) illustrate a similar buckle, No. 472 which is dated to the first half of the 15th century. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Bolton, Angie - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
