Description: | An incomplete cast copper-alloy double-looped annular buckle with moulded floral decoration; just over half of the buckle survives. The buckle is broadly in the form of a five-petalled flower, with the moulded petals irregular sizes, and those upper [and lowermost] straight rather than cusped. The petals are decorated with transverse punches within a field. The pin bar is central and trapezoidal in cross-section. The lower surface of the artefact is flat and plain. Similar buckles can be found illustrated in Whitehead (1996, 47; refs. 272-274) and Margeson (1993, 29; ref. 157), where they are dated to the late medieval/early post-medieval periods. This buckle is now a dull mid/dark-grey/green colour with patches of off-white corrosion product.
