Description: | A copper-alloy frame from a Single-loop buckle of medieval date. Evidence from excavations in London suggests that the fashion for ornate buckle frames and plates probably spanned the period of the late 12th to late 14th centuries AD (G. Egan and F. Pritchard, 1991, pp.76).The frame is roughly D-shaped, with flat surfaces and an offset axis bar. The outer side is occupied by a wide pin rest which contains five parallel horizontal incisions. The pin is missing.The piece measures 16.87mm long, 18.43mm wide and 1.81mm thick. The weight is 1.4g.
