Description: | A complete cast copper alloy Medieval to Post Medieval buckle frame dating from about 1350-1650 AD. The frame is a double loop or spectacle buckle with D-shaped loops set back to back. The frame and bar are both semi-circular in section with the bar and inner parts of the loops being slightly narrower than the outer frames of the loops. The inner and outer edges of the frame are bevelled. Due to wear, the notch for the pin rest is no longer visible; the pin is also missing. The buckle frame has a light green patina and there is mild orange corrosion on the back of the pin bar. Similar buckle frames may be found in Whitehead's Buckles, page 53, number 294.Length: 22.6mm; Width: 26.4mm; Thickness: 2.7mm; Weight: 3.21g
