Description: | An incomplete copper alloy double-looped buckle frame of Post-Medieval date. One of the D-shaped loops and the central bar survive intact, as does half of the pin, the remainder missing due to old breaks. The D-shaped frame is sub-triangular in form with a flat back and doem shaped front and has projecting knops at the point where frame and bar meet. The bar itself is triangular in section and slightly bent at the centre where the pin hinges. The second loop is missing due to old breaks. A small section of the pin survives formed from a D-shaped strip of copper alloy that has been folded around the bar and terminates in old breaks towards the now missing point. The entire object has an added white metal finish and measures 22.15mm in height, 17.79mm in width, 2.87mm in thickness, and weighs 2.42g.
This buckle frame is of Post-Medieval date, probably belonging in the 17th century AD, with a close parallel noted from Post-Medieval Norwich (Margeson, 1993: no. 168). | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Brown, Andrew | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
