Description: | A copper alloy buckle frame which is sub-rectangular. The frame is drilled for a separate spindle of which nothing remains except for some ferrous corrosion round the holes. This technique was not commonly used until the late seventeenth century (Whitehead 2003). The pin and plate do not survive. The frame is 20.8mm long, 17.6mm wide and 4.3mm thick. It is decorated with incised panels containing groups of parallel incised lines and small motifs such as lozenges. Similar examples can be seen in "Buckles" by Ross Whitehead (2003) though there is not one with the same design. The buckle dates from the late seventeenth or early eighteenth century. It is brownish green in colour and has a slightly patchy patina.
