Description: | Rectangular frame, possibly from a buckle but more probably from a strap clasp. The sides are curved in the centre; both the bar and outer edge are narrowed. If this is a buckle, the bar would have held a plate and pin and the outer edge would have held a separate roller; if it is a clasp, the bar would have held a plate and the outer edge would have held a rotating end. In general, however, buckles of this shape have a thickened and grooved outer edge which may be imitating a separate roller, so it is more likely that the object is a clasp. 13th to 15th century.17 | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | 1200
