Description: | Copper alloy post-medieval buckle, probably dating from 1485-1600. The buckle has an oval shaped double-looped frame with a central narrowed pin bar. This type of buckle is sometimes refered to as 'figure-of-eight' or 'spectacle' buckles and began to be used from 1350 but became much more common during the post-medieval period during which time it became the dominant type. Both loops have a small groove or pin-rest in the centre of the loop. The buckle weighs 2.37g and measures 12.5mm in width and 22mm in length. | 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: | 1485
