Description: | An incomplete cast iron annular/ circular framed probable shoe buckle with central bar, dating to the 15th/ 16th century AD (diameter:33mm; thickness: 4.5mm; weight: 5.91g). Similar to the main frame of the buckle, the central strap bar (length: 23mm; diameter: 3mm) is also circular in section. There is no decoration on the artefact and none of the pin remains. Overall, the buckle is in a corroded but fair condition. Similar examples in copper alloy or lead-tin are illustrated in Egan & Pritchard?s ?Dress Accessories c 1150 ? c 1450?, 2002, pages 65-6, ref nos 214, 216, 220 & 227. | 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: | 1400
