Description: | Copper alloy, oval composite buckle with integral forked spacer. The pin rest in the centre of the outer edge projects slightly and there is a small notch towards the inside of the frame. The frame has a bevelled edge and is triangular in section. The strap bar is offset and constricted where the pin is attached. The reverse is flat. The copper alloy pin with side flanges is in tact. The forked spacers are thicker where they join the strap bar and are much shorter than is generally the case, although they taper sharply to a point suggesting that they were originally a shorter variant (L. 9mm). The folded sheet copper alloy plate is incomplete (L. 9mm. W. 14mm). The side that abuts the pin is straight and the opposing edge has a rectangular slot , the function of which is unclear. No rivets are visible. Patchy mid-green patina.
