Description: | Post Medieval cast copper-alloy double-loop buckle frame. Only one oval loop now remains, the other is lost to old breaks. The strap bar is narrowed with scallop-shell shaped knops at either end, the shape emphasised by indented rayed lines. From the centre of the outer edge of the complete loop projects a large lozenge shaped knop. The flat top of the knop is stepped up in two steps from the surface of the loop. The inner side of the outer edge of the loop is curved inwards slightly opposite this knop. It is bent as well as broken and is now 28.6mm long, 25.3mm wide and 2.1mm thick, it weighs 3.74 grams.Whitehead (2003) illustrates a similar buckle, p.65, No.402 which he dates to c.1550-1650 AD.
