Description: | Here we have an example of a large copper alloy, cast shoe buckle from the 18th century. The style and size would place it as post 1770, it fits with the 'Artois' type, common from 1770 to 1790. The buckle is square cornered and has a pierced lug on the back surface for the pin assembly, now missing. The frame is very curved.The design is for the most part linear, with a cast pair of lines to the long sides and an incurving 'rope' design on both ends of the piece. There are further crescent markings/indentations to the ends and a delineated pin rest.
