Part of one loop and the pin are missing.The frame is symmetrical in plan, flat at the front and rear.Each loop would have been of similar size and shape and they are rectangular in cross-section.The outer edge of the complete loop has lobed knops at the corners and a triangular protrusion at the centre where there is a shallow pin-rest. There is an incised line running down the front of the outer edge. The narrowed bar is 'D'-shaped in cross-section, flat at the rear. At each end of the bar there is a small knop.This buckle frame has a mid-green patina which is lost in places due to corrosion. The breaks are old.25.1 x 22.4 x 2.1mm.
