Description: | A cast copper-alloy single-looped medieval buckle frame with ornate outside edge. As a buckle this is an incomplete example in so far as it is missing its pin and plate. The frame's expanded outer edge has knopped ends which travel outwards at an angle. At one end a fine, raised transverse ridge delineates the knop. Four grooves between the knops create a further three ridges, the central pair of which would have acted as a pin rest. The pin bar opposite is offset and narrowed. The frame between is flat on its surfaces, bevelled internally on the lower surface, and both internally and externally on the upper. File marks are visible on these edges and the lower surface in particular. The buckle has corroded to a mid-/dark-grey colour with some patches of off-white corrosion product. It has been twisted slightly in profile as a result of old damage.
