Description: | A cast copper alloy buckle frame of probable seventeenth century date. The surviving part of the curvilinear double loop buckle measures 51.3mm by 31.8mm by 1.8mm and weighs 8.7g. At each end of the narrowed strap bar there are external trefoils and there is a moulded rosette or flower the outside edge of the frame. The pin is missing. A broadly similar although rather less elaborate buckle can be seen in Whitehead's 'Buckles 1250-1800' (2003, p. 71, no. 444). This example has been dated to between c. 1600 and 1720. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Payne, Naomi - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
