Description: | A damaged and broken cast copper-alloy medieval buckle frame, possibly of the composite type with forked spacer. The oval frame has a central, pointed lip and possible recess to act as pin rest on the inner face. The frame is bevelled externally on the upper surface; the lower surface is flat. In cross-section it is triangular. The frame has been narrowed at the spacer for the pin and has broken through at this weak point; the pin is missing. The frame is thickened at this point and the narrowed part circular in cross-section. The spacer barely survives, if at all. The buckle frame has a variable dark-green patina with some patches of light-green corrosion product. Due to old damage the side with the spacer end has been bent round an up. The other side has broken before any thickening at the spacer end.
