Description: | A Medieval buckle which has been made from cast copper alloy. In plan the frame has a oval shaped frame, which is double looped. The strap bar is narrowed and is a sub-trapezoidal shape in section. However, the pin no longer exists. The loops are sub-triangular in section and are decorated with three radiate grooves at the apex. In plan the frame has been distorted therefore the strap bar is obliquely angled instead of being vertical. This damage does not appear to be recent. The frame has a dark green coloured patina. The length of the frame is 33.2mm and is 28.9mm wide. The weight is 4.73g. There is a similar shaped buckle frame in Egan and Pritchard, No. 332 which is dated to the late 14th century. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
