Description: | Part of the frame of a cast copper alloy buckle, probably dating from the early post medieval period. The buckle may originally have been a double loop or asymmetric example and the curving frame indicates an oval or D-shaped shape. The frame's cross section is oval. In the centre of the frame on the outside edge there is a large knop with a well defined recessed sub-circular pin rest. There is some moulding on the knop and although it is very worn it may be zoomophic, with two eye like depressions of the upper surface and two lines which define a 'mouth' on the end. This buckle fragment is broadly similar to examples which date from the mid-sixteenth century to the mid-seventeenth century.Dimensions: 36.21mm by 19.81mm by 6.89mmWeight: 5.03g
