Description: | A corroded copper-alloy Single-loop buckle of medieval date.
The frame of the buckle is D-shaped, has an outward-sloping upper surface and an offset axis bar of circular section. The upper plate is sub-rectangular in plan, having recessed shoulders at the frame end and stepping inwards at the centre of the proximal (that furthest from the frame) vertical side. Adjacent to this step is a sub-rectangular aperture of apparently decorative nature. Two small copper-alloy rivets, located towards the frame end, hold the upper plate to the much smaller back plate. No pin remains within the frame's horizontal pin slot. The upper surface of the upper plate has traces of gilding.
The buckle measures 34.3mm long, 20.4mm wide and 4.6mm thick. The weight is 5.04g. | Subjects: | Single-loop | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Watters, Julian - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
