Description: | A corroded and bent cast copper-alloy post-medieval double-looped buckle, incomplete in as much as it is missing its pin. The buckle is of pointed oval form, with the outer edges having central rounded points. They bear moulded rosettes on their upper surfaces which extend slightly into the interior of the loops; the perforations are therefore broadly kidney shaped. The pin bar ends in a trefoilate moulding, with further scrolled moulding between this and the outer edge. The buckle is generally flat with slightly rounded edges. This buckle has been bent in profile with one of the loops bent downwards nearly thirty degrees as a result of old damage. The buckle has a red-brown metal over which variable green corrosion product and some patches of a black lacquer coating. A similar buckle can be found illustrated in Whitehead (1996, 67; ref. 418).
