Description: | A Medieval/ Early Post-Medieval (1350-1600) copper alloy single-loop buckle frame with projections on the inside edge, complete with pin corroded into place. Measures 24.63mmx20.71mm2.64mm and weighs 4.2g. The frame is D-shaped and bevelled both internally and externally; the lower surface is flat as is the top. The pin bar is triangular in cross-section and has the corroded remains of the pin in-situ. It is a mid-green colour with patches of off white corrosion.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.
