Description: | A Medieval/ Early Post-Medieval (1350-1600) copper alloy single-loop buckle frame with projections on the inside edge, complete with pin. It measures 34.94x29.14mm (internal 27.19x17.31mm) and weighs 6.0g.The frame is D-shaped and widens at the apex to where there is a horizontal groove for the pin to rest. The pin is a fragment of wire which terminates with a point and has been curled around the strap bar. It measures 24.84mm.A buckle published in Egan's Dress Accessories (no.284) with projections is thought to have accommodated the fashion of tying a strap so it hangs vertically in the late 14th to mid 15th century.An incomplete/broken Post-Medieval cast copper alloy double-looped buckle, with pin still attached to the bar.
