Description: | Cast copper alloy belt stiffener dating from the 13th - 14th century. The object is sub-lozenge shaped in plan and triangular in cross-section. The object consists of a lozenge shaped body each end of which expands to form an oval. Each oval is pierced with two circular holes. Projecting from the centre of each oval is a triangular knop which terminates with a rounded point. The central lozenge is decorated with a single incised groove which borders the object. On the reverse of the object are two sub-rectangular lugs for attachment. The object has a dark brown patina and is in good condition. A similar example is fig.C11.50, p47, Bailey, (2008).
