Description: | A cast copper-alloy double-looped medieval annular buckle frame with two oblique projections on the same outer edge. The buckle is incomplete in so far as the pin is missing. The lower surface is flat and undecorated while the upper surface features moulded decoration; the frame is D-shaped in cross-section. The decoration on the frame is cabled, with transverse grooves creating ridges. The tips of the projections are recessed compared to those elements of the projections at the junction with the frame. The buckle is bent downwards at the outer edge, probably as much a product of use as damage. The metal is a now a mid/dark green colour. A similar example can be found illustrated in Whitehead (1996, 46; no. 268) which is dated to the 15th-century.
