Description: | Early Post Medieval copper alloy double-oval buckle frame with ornate outside edge, missing its pin. It measures 79.9x45.6mm and weighs 12.08g. The internal dimensions of the hoops are 22x27mm and 21x27mm.At either end of the central axis bar (which is flat, as is the rest of the buckle with max.thickness c.2mm) extends a trefoil, with the outerside two foils pierced and slightly larger than the central one. The trefoils are c.10-12mm wide, and the piercings are c.3mm in diameter.A much larger trefoil extends at the centre of the outside edge of each loop (21mm wide). The two outside foils are circular and have an internal diameter of c.6mm. The central foil is pointed and diamond shaped and perhaps better represents a fluer de lis. It extends 5x7mm from the other foils.Probably 16th century in date. All original patina has been lost.
