Description: | An incomplete cast copper alloy single looped and D-shaped buckle, dating from the 13th-15th century AD (length: 22mm; width: 33.5mm; thickness: 5mm; weight: 5.15g). The buckle has an off set and narrowed strap bar, where less than half of the cast copper alloy pin (length: 9mm) is still attached. At the opposing ends of the strap bar, the frame protrudes outwards slightly. There is no decoration, but a couple of indentations along the outside edge of the frame indicate where the pin may have originally rested when complete. The buckle is in a worn and poor condition when extensive corrosion throughout. A similar example is illustrated in Egan & Pritchard?s ?Dress Accessories c 1150 ? c 1450?, 2002, pages 68 & 70, fig 42, ref no 271. | 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
