Description: | A corroded and bent cast lead-alloy post-medieval double-looped buckle, complete with iron pin. The buckle is elaborately moulded, with broadly D-shaped loops. Each outer edge features a moulded rosette from which protrudes a rounded knop. There is a further rosette at each end of the pin bar, beyond which a similar, slightly shorter knop. At the 'corners' of each loop is a curved knop. Either side of the ends of the pin bar is a group of three small longitudinal ridges with transverse ridges beyond. There are further transverse ridges between the curved knops and the outer edge rosettes. The entire lower surface of the buckle is concave with the exception of the pin bar. A simple iron pin survives looped around the pin bar, bent to one side as a result of old damage. This buckle has been bent in profile with one of the loops bent upwards around forty degrees as a result of old damage. The buckle has a mid-grey colour with patches of off-white corrosion product, particularly on the lower surface.
