Description: | One D-shaped loop from a very large double-looped buckle frame, 49 mm wide. The bar is missing, but on one end a moulding survives which probably bordered the bar. The corners are rounded, more sharply on the exterior than on the interior. At the centre of the outer edge is a large relief acorn motif flanked by a pair of mouldings. The acorn is quite squat, with a cross-hatched cup and a knopped kernel. The reverse of both the acorn and the rest of the frame are slightly hollowed. There are traces of what looks like gilding, but these are confined to the highest parts of the buckle and do not survive in the grooves so may be merely an effect of patination. Early post-medieval. | 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: | 1500
