Description: | Incomplete and corroded cast copper alloy double-looped buckle of Post medieval date, probably sixteenth or seventeenth century (AD 1500 ? AD 1700). Length 28mm, width 20.2mm and 1.8mm thick. Weight 2.26g. Most of one of the loops and also the pin are missing. The surviving loop is of reversed D-shape. The frame and bar are roughly D-shaped in cross-section, flat at the rear. However, the inner faces of both are bevelled. The ornate outer edge is in the form of a long oval knop which has moulded decoration resembling a fleur de lis. Patches of a dark green patina survive on the front and the rear. The buckle was probably of asymmetrical form. | 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
