Description: | A copper-alloy double-oval buckle of early post-Medieval date.The buckle has two symmetrical sides, both of which angle upwards from the central axis bar. At the centre of each vertical outer side is a moulded flower head. The axis bar has a protruding knop at each end and there is adhering iron corrosion from the otherwise missing pin. The buckle's surfaces bear an unidentified black coating. The artefact measures 41.7mm long, 29.1mm wide and 6.3mm thick (due to the adhering iron corrosion). The weight is 9.41g.A similar buckle was found on Henry VIII's warship, the Mary Rose, which sank in 1545 (see Gardiner ed. 2005: 104, ref. 82A5069).
