Description: | A bent, corroded and incomplete copper-alloy buckle frame of medieval date. A similar, but larger, buckle was found in excavations in London and is suggested to be from a sword belt (see G. Egan and F. Pritchard; 1991; pp. 75, no. 311). This buckle may have served the aforementioned function or may have been from a shoe or a belt.The frame would orginally have been roughly D-shaped, the thickness extending gradually, into a wide, flat pin rest with central slot and a lobe on each corner. The axis bar is largely missing but appears to have been offset.The object measures 24.97mm long, 25.08mm wide and 2.23mm thick. The weight is 1.8g.
