Description: | A cast copper-alloy double looped buckle frame, only one of the loops survives. The pin remains intact and in situ and survives to a length of 23.7mm. There is no pin recess. The frame is highly decorated with decorative mouldings. There is a leaf-shaped extension at the end of the strap bar and moulded decoration in the outer edge. The rest of the frame also features floral mouldings. The reverse is flat and undecorated. The buckle is a dark greenish-brown colour and the surface is slightly pitted. These buckles date from circa 1550-1650. Parallels for this type of buckle can be seen in Whitehead, 2003, p64-5.
