Description: | A corroded and bent rectangular double-looped buckle frame of post-medieval date. This example is incomplete in so far as it has lost its pin. The frame is slightly bevelled both internally and externally; with a flat lower surface it has a trapezoidal cross-section. The outer edges feature protruding moulded pin rests; there are further mouldings at the ends of the pin bar on the upper surface. The frame can be seen to have been bent when viewed in profile, at one corner of one of the loops. Traces of a black coating, a lacquer such as vernis brun or linseed oil, can be seen in recessed areas. A direct parallel can be found illustrated in Margeson (1993, 31; ref. 177); as such a broad 17th-century date is proposed.
