Description: | Double-sided buckle frame with central bar, probably from a shoe. The frame is 30mm long and 19mm wide, is flat on the back and rounded on the upper surface. Each of the two halves of the frame is alike, with a thickened process pointing within the frame at the position opposite the pin, on the fore-edge, and with ornamental indentations to the outline where the D-frames join the central bar. The pin is attached, and is a large, flat, tear-shaped piece of bronze attached to the pin-bar at its thicker end and tapering to a point 2.5mm broad at its outer end. The pinbar appears to for a hollow sleeve to contain an iron rod passing through it, to the central element of which the swivelling pin-plate is fastened. It weighs 6g, and is probably post-mediaeval, possibly 18th century or slightly earlier. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
