Description: | An incomplete and misshapen post-Medieval double-looped buckle (c. 1550-c. 1650).This buckle frame is moulded at the front and flat at the rear. Each loop is similar, 'D'-shaped in plan and has pointed outside edges. The sides and outside edges have a border of pellets. There are sub-circular holes at each end of the bar and at the outside edges. These are 'counter-sunk' on the upper surface. The bar is triangular in cross-section and the pin is missing.This buckle frame is pitted and corroded and has a patch mid-green patina. On the rear face the bar has a reddish colour which is where the patina has been lost (not iron staining). Buff corrosion products are present in the crevices at the front.43.9 x 26.2 2.5mm. Weight: 7.03g.A similar buckle frame has been published and dated c. 1550-1650 (Whitehead 1996: 70, ref: 436).
