Description: | Copper-alloy strap-slide, used for holding down the free end of a strap. It is pentagonal, with an angled upper edge 26.5 mm long; both the upper edge and the sides are trapezoidal in cross-section and have visible filemarks. The opposite edge is 22.5 mm long, and a flatter rectangle in cross-section; it has a central circular rivet hole in which a separate copper-alloy rivet survives together with a small sheet rove. This rivet is internal to the strap-slide and retains a scrap of pale textile.
