Description: | The copper-alloy double buckle frames described below are post-medieval in date. 1: Double oval shaped frame, measuring 48.6mm by 25.9mm in size. The central bar is damaged and corroded iron adheres to it, this is probably the remains of an iron pin. In the centre of the outer edge of both loops of the frame there is a projecting oval shaped moulding decorated with a flower motif on its front face. 2: A double oval shaped frame, measuring 26.8mm by 22.4mm in size. The outer edges of each loop are expanded and decorated with evenly spaced triangular protrusions. The front face of the outer edges is also decorated with transverse grooves. The copper-alloy pin remains in situ attached to the central bar via an open loop. 3: An incomplete double oval looped buckle frame, one loop is now missing due to an old break. The surviving loop measures 33mm by 29mm in size. The bar is narrowed and an in situ copper-alloy pin attached to it via an open loop. At the centre of the outer edge of the surviving loop and where the frame joins the bar their are convex projecting acorn motifs decorated on their front faces with cross-hatched grooves, they have hollow back faces. 4: One loop of a double oval looped buckle frame. This loop measures 28.7mm by 20.5mm in size. The outer edge is expanded and decorated on its front face with an incised foilage design. 5: A complete double looped frame, one loop is rounded and the other rectangular in shape. This frame measures 26.5mm by 21.1mm in size. The narrowed central bar and part of the frame itself has corroded iron adhering to it, this is likely to be the remains of an iron pin. There is a transverse groove across the centre of the front face of the outer edge of both loops. 6: A complete double looped frame, one loop os rounded and the other rectangular in shape. Measuring 22mm by 15.6mm in size. There are small protruding knops where the frame meets the bar. The front face of the rectangular loop is also decorated along its outer edge with five evenly spaced transverse grooves. 7: A complete double looped frame, one loop is rounded and the other rectangular in shape. It measures 22mm by 14mm in size. Projecting from the centre of the outer edge of the rounded loop there is a worn acorn-shaped protrusion. 8: A rectangular shaped complete double looped buckle frame measuring 42mm by 20.8mm in size. The outer edges of the frame are expanded to form soild triangular parts. There are also protruding knops where the frame joins the bar. 9: A large complete rectangular shaped double looped buckle frame. Measuring 51mm by 49.2mm in size. The frame is faceted and the outer edges of the loop, which are oval in shape internally, have rectangular bars running across them, with rounded terminals. The copper-alloy pin remains in situ attached to the bar via an open loop. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
