Description: | Incomplete medieval copper alloy gilt and enamelled Limoges buckle frame, just over half survives, corroded and bent, sub-rectangular with concave sides (44 (unbent) x >19mm). The surviving outside edge retains a small fragment of the enamelled decoration comprising a red dot within concentric semi-circular bands of yellow, turquoise and dark blue. The offset central bar has a wide constriction for the missing pin. Part of the sides and the other outer edge (which originally held the buckle plate) is missing. Cf. Enamels of Limoges 1100-1350 (New York 1996) 287, no.91 and Fingerlin (1971), pp.37 and 39. Late 12th-early 13th century.
