Description: | Cast copper alloy double-loop spectacle buckle, sub-oval in plan, with rounded ends and five concave roundels on each loop and a narrowed, recesssed strap bar. The pin is now missing and the back of the buckle has been worn smooth. The recessed roundels were unlikely to have been used as settings for stones, but were purely decorative as similar buckles with openwork were at the time.Whitehead (1996) illustrates a similar buckle on page 71, No.446, which is dated from c.1600-1720.
