Description: | Medieval buckle of most unusual construction: oval frame with pin notch and sides projecting beyond a separate bar, (incomplete) wire pin, rectangular sheet plate with pin slot, frame recesses, front and rear parts of equal size, and one rivet near damaged attachment edge. Two side strips were soldered into position within the gaps between the two parts of the plate. One is missing and the other is loose. The side strips are reminiscent of those used in two-piece strap-ends (Dress Accessories fig. 89), while the separate bar, whose ends are smoothly flush with sides of the frame, is more characteristic of Roman buckles. Frame 15.5 x 18mm. Plate >17.5 x 13mm. Overall length >28.5mm. 14th ?? 15th century | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Robbins, Katherine - Norfolk Museums and Archaeology Service | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
