Description: | Complete cast copper alloy double looped buckle frame of Post Medieval date (AD 1620 ? AD 1680). Length 33mm, width 22mm and 2.0mm thick. Weight 4.87g.
The frame is flat on both faces. It is symmetrical and each identical loop is trapezoidal in plan. At the centre of each outer edge there is a pointed swelling and at each corner of the frame is an ovoid knop. There are lobed protrusions at the ends of the bar which is roughly square in cross-section. There is a pin rest in the form of a shallow and narrow groove at the centre of each of the outer edges. The upper face is decorated with a linear groove parallel to the inner edge of each loop and there are also randomly punched dots which do not appear to form a distinct pattern. The pin is missing.
The frame is in poor condition and is mainly corroded overall. | 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: | 1620
