Description: | Cast copper-alloy sub rectangular shoe buckle, dating to c.1690-1720. Only the frame of the buckle remains, this appears to have holes drilled through each longer side which would have originally held a seperate spindle. This, the pin and the chape have now both been lost. The frame is slightly curved. It is roughly rectangular in shape, with curved corners. It has two larger moulded knops in the centre of each longer side, which extend round to the reverse of the frame. Extending all the way round the rest of the frame, on the front only, are a series of smaller knops with grooves between each one. The metal is light orangey-grey in colour and very erroded. Examples of similar buckles can be seen in Whitehead pp.102-103 | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Andrews-Wilson, Liz - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
