Description: | A late Saxon buckle with an integral stepped plate and with a narrow waist decorated with a knot motif. Most of the frame is missing. There are two surviving iron rivets for attaching the leather strap. Engraved decoration consists of a pair of opposed crescents joined by a fillet of two lines. There is a circular hole for the pin which contains the stub of flat sheet iron (?). The iron corrosion on the reverse is of uncertain origin. | 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: | 1000
