Description: | A cast copper alloy double looped buckle, with an intact strap bar. The buckle has two sub-oval loops. There are moulded and engraved rosette knops on the outer edges of each loop. There are also moulded knops at each end of the strap bar. The strap bar is very narrow.
The frame is uninterrupted; so therefore has no pin recess. The pin is missing.
The metal has lost most of its original surface and the metal is a mid greyish-green colour. This type of buckle dates from circa 1550 - 1650. Parallels for this type of buckle can be seen in Whitehead, 2003, p63. | 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: | 1550
