Description: | A Post Medieval cast copper alloy double loop buckle. The buckle is sub-rectangular in plan with both ends on either side of the central strap bar formed into a triangular shape with pointed outer edges. The voids to either side of the strap bar are square in shape and are broadly the same size. The strap bar is extended in a rectangular knop slightly beyond the sides of the buckle frame. The pin is missing. The back of the buckle is flat and the front is bevelled around the upper outer edge. There is significant remains of a whitemetal coating on both sides of the buckle which is most probably tinning. Similar buckles are shown in Whitehead, Buckles 1250-1800 (2003) p82 which he dates from 1620-1680 AD. The buckle is 44.5mm long, 21.8mm wide, 2.4mm thick and weighs 5.95g.
