Description: | A cast copper-alloy single-looped medieval oval buckle frame with ornate outside edge. The frame's large outer edge has knopped ends which travel slightly outwards. Between the knops are numerous transverse grooves, along the length. The pin bar opposite is offset and narrowed. Its terminals are moulded. The pin is now missing. The frame is bevelled both internally and externally on its upper surface faces; the latter far more steeply. The lower surface is largely flat. The buckle has corroded to variable mid/light-green colours. In London similar buckles have been found in contexts dating from the 13th and 14th centuries. Duly, a wide date range is offered for this example. A buckle of similar form can be found illustrated in Ottaway and Rogers (2002, 2888; ref. 14306).
