Description: | Undated copper alloy buckle or strap end/mount, 40mm long, 30mm wide and 7mm thick. The object is in fair condition and weighs 24.25grams. The object consists of a D shaped frame with rounded underside and flat upper surface. It has two sub rectangular raised borders which run from the recessed circular sectioned bar on the flat edge; to the centre of the rounded portion, leaving a small central flat surface resembling a pin rest. Inside these borders the surface is decorated with a series of raised open circles.The object looks most like a buckle but seems overweight for the size of strap it could accommodate. It could be a strap end or a decorative harness mount?
