Description: | A cast copper alloy Medieval to Post-Medieval buckle frame. It is circular in shape with decorated, curved outer edge and flat back face. The decoration comprises multiple incised triangular notches that are unevenly spaced around the circumference of the frame. The frame has an integral central bar that is trapezoidal in section and has a small circular indentation at its centre where the bar has bent probably due to use wear. The outer faces have the remains of an added black finish or coating. The buckle measures 44.94mm in diameter, 2.54mm in thickness, and weighs 12.79g. It is of Medieval to Post-Medieval date, with similar more decorative examples from Norwich suggesting a date range in the 15th to 16th centuries AD (Margeson, 1993: nos. 158-159). | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Brown, Andrew | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
