Description: | A complete cast copper alloy Medieval single loop buckle with integral, forked spacer and double sheet plate, dating to c. 1350-1450. The buckle consists of four parts: the buckle frame, two plates and pin. The buckle frame is oval in shape with a pointed lip on the outer edge and a notched frame; there are remains of filing on both the front and back surfaces, but no additional decoration. The rectangular double sheet plate is riveted to the forked spacer by means of two circular copper alloy rivets down the centre of the buckle plate. The pin is made of copper alloy wire and simply wrapped around a circular hole in the buckle frame, directly above the area of the spacer and plates. For similar examples, cf. Whitehead 2003, p36.
