Description: | An incomplete cast copper-alloy double-looped buckle of post-Medieval date (c. 1550- c. 1650). The pin and one loop are missing. When complete, the frame was probably symmetrical in plan. The surviving loop is oval, convex at the front and flat at the rear. At the centre of the outside edge there is a lobed knop which appears to have been in the form of a rosette motif. However, this is unclear due to wear and corrosion. The bar is 'D'-shaped in cross-section, flat at the rear. At each end of the bar there is a small projecting knop.This buckle is corroded and has traces of a dark green patina.33.4 x 26.6 x 2.0mm. Weight: 3.22g.A similar buckle frame has been published by Whithead 1996: 66, ref: 410. This published buckle frame is dated c. 1550 - c. 1650.
