Description: | A cast copper double looped shaped buckle. The loops are decorated with an openwork framed protrusion at the apex of the loop. The corner of the loops and the terminals of the strap bar have knops. The strap bar is worn and incomplete. The pin is missing. In profile the buckle is slightly twisted. The buckle frame has traces of a mid green patina. The buckle measures 61.16mm long and 32.51mm wide. It weighs 6.7g.
The buckle probably dates to the early Post Medieval period. Margeson (Margeson, S. 1993 Norwich Households; Medieval and Post Medieval Finds from Norwich Survey Excavations 1971-78. East Anglian Archaeology Report No. 58, p. 28) comments that more ornately decorated buckles can date to the Post Medieval period. | 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: | 1500
