Description: | A cast copper alloy, double loop spectacle buckle with narrowed strap bar, dating from 1500-1650AD. The inside edges of the loops are bevelled and one end of the strap bar has a straight edge, probably where metal has been left behind when this buckle was sheared from the others after casting. The pin is missing. The buckle has a light green patina. It is 38.8mm long, 36.6mm wide and 2.5mm thick. It weighs 7.27gm. Similar buckles can be found in Whitehead, Buckles 1250-1800, page 55.
