Description: | A double looped oval shaped buckle made from cast copper. In plan, the buckle is a pointed oval. In profile the buckle does not quite lie flat, but has an exceptionally wide ?V? shaped profile. The loops are undecorated, but one has a notch on the upper surface. The reverse is also undecorated. The strap bar is narrowed, and is oval in section. The pin is missing. The buckle loops has a well developed mid green patina. The buckle measures 31.82mm long and 20.62mm wide. It weighs 3.53g.
Egan and Pritchard (2002 Dress Accessories Boydell Press) date a similar buckle (No. 386) to the late 14th century. | 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: | 1350
