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, has an offset and narrow strap bar of rectangular section, and a moulded pin rest on the outer side. At the top and bottom of the pin rest a moulded lobe is separated from the rest of the frame by a sheet metal roller. The pin is missing.
