Description: | Incomplete cast copper alloy double looped buckle of probable Medieval date (AD 1200 ? AD 1500). Length 38mm, width 21mm and 2.0mm thick. Weight 3.82g.
Each loop is roughly oval, although they are not identical in plan and one is slightly larger than the other. The bar is circular in cross-section with a diameter of 2.2mm. The full length of one of the outside edges has a swelling which is 19mm in length, 3.5mm wide and 2.0mm thick. The pin is missing.
The frame is corroded and in poor condition. No patina has survived and the metal is a purple brownish colour.
No analogy found. Probably Medieval. | 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
