Description: | A copper alloy double looped buckle which dates from the seventeenth century. It is 70mm long, 43.7mm wide and 7.8mm thick. The buckle is rectangular has a tall frame with wide outer edges and sides. The corners are cut away and there are V shaped notches in the side at each end of the central bar. The frame is decorated with punched or rouletted indents in a foliage pattern and would have originally been silvered. The pin survives looped round the bar. The plate is missing. The best parallels for this buckle are oval examples of similar size in Whitehead (1996, page 56 ?? 57). Though there is no rectangular example the other details are similar. They are dated to 1630 ?? 1690. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Cooper, Amy - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
