Description: | An incomplete cast copper alloy double-looped framed buckle with enamel, dating to the Post Medieval period, between AD 1600 - 1750 (length: 52mm; width: 37mm; thickness: 3.5mm; weight: 13.62g).A flat-sectioned double-looped framed buckle with moulded scrollwork decoration in the form of eight 'S' shaped swirls regularly balanced on the front side of the buckle only. The field/ area around the scrollwork still have a large amount of blue enamel remaining . The 'S' features may once have had a different colour enamel, but they are devoid of colour with their shapes outlined by the blue. The back of the buckle is flat and undecorated. The pin is completely missing, although the strap bar in the centre remains. Overall, the artefact is in a worn but fair condition with very little of the original green patina remaining.Another Post Medieval buckle with enamelled decoration has bee recorded with the Portable Antiquities Scheme (NMS-7A0C87) and was found at Ashmanhaugh in Norfolk.
