It measures 36.15mm in length and weighs 5.2g.The frame has a narrowed, offset axis bar. The sheet roller is of a different copper alloy to the frame and is decorated with five incised lines running around the circumference. The outside edge is solid, circular in section and max.5.78mm in diameter at the centre and the roller. The outside edge, which is offset from the frame itself, narrows to either end to c.2.4mm. The buckle frame measures 18.44x17.19mm (internal 9.96x12.77mm).The buckle plate is 0.47mm in thickness and measures 19.47x9.71mm. It folds around the frame's axis bar where it narrows to 7.49mm wide. Just behind the pin are two rivets 1.25mm in diameter and in situ. At the open end the plate seems to have broken across a central rivet hole.The pin is 1.34mm thick and 20.25mm in length.Cf. WILT-2B1135 for a similar buckle frame.
