Description: | An ornate copper alloy Post-Medieval buckle. The surviving loop is D-shaped but it appears to have originally been a double oval-looped buckle, now broken. The loop of an iron pin remains on the straight, circular-sectioned central bar. This terminates in rounded ends between the loops of the frame, decorated with a human face. The curved outer edge is thicker and has a central pin rest with three raised ridges. There is a scroll either side of this, forming slightly protruding corners at top and bottom. The upper and lower edges have horizontal linear ridges with two vertical ridges in the centre. There are traces of a black surface coating remaining.
A similar buckle is illustrated in Whitehead 1996 p.68, 426 | 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: | 1550
