Whitehead has similar shaped buckles, however these are not as highly moulded on the loop than this example. The buckle frame is triangular in plan. The strap bar is narrowed, off-set and is oval shaped in section. The loop has a moulded scalloped edge, with further defintion on the upper surface. The notch is triangular and protrudes beyond the outer edge of the loop. The reverse of the buckle frame is flat. The buckle frame has a light green patina, which is slightly abraded. The pin is also cast from copper alloy. It is an elongated triangle which is curled around the strap bar. As decoration there is a ridge on the upper surface of the pin near the strap bar curl. The pin has a dark green patina. It measures 23.8mm long, 17.2mm wide and weighs 3.94g.
