Description: | The front part of a gilt and enamelled rectangular buckle plate broken before the fold, with two rivet holes at the attachment edge, one with a rivet, the other broken through to the corner. The apparently blue enamel, in a symmetrical spiral foliar design, survives proud of the decayed surface of the metal, and one small patch of gilding is extant near the rivet. It is uncertain whether or not this was attached to a double-looped frame, cf. Fingerlin 1971 Abb. 8-21, but there are uncertain indications of a pin slot or hole. If this is true then a single looped frame would have been used. >26 x 24mm. Cf. NMS-7773F7. c.1150 - c.1225.
