Description: | Pressed sheet copper alloy mount with fragment of leather remaining from within frame and four small rivet holes which would have attached it to a leather shoe as a decorative piece, emulating earlier shoe buckles.The survival of the leather and the way that the mount has been machine made both suggest a Victorian date.Read (1988) illustrates a similar pressed open buckle on page 178, No.1206, which is dated to the 19th century.
