Description: | The object is probably a fragment of a buckle frame. What remains of the frame is a fragment of the loop, and not the strap bar. It possibly dates to the Medieval period.
The frame is made from cast copper alloy. The loop is an ?L? in plan and is sub-rectangular in section. The long edge has moulding on the exterior edge which consists of a curved convex edge which is scalloped. The upper surface of the loop is decorated with a double row of linear grooves. The reverse of the frame is slightly concave. The surface of the loop has a dark green patina.
The length of the loop is 27.5mm, and is 17.2mm wide. It weighs 2.43g. | 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
