Description: | An incomplete copper-alloy D-shaped buckle frame with an integral openwork plate of Medieval date. It is missing the attachment end and the pin due to old breaks, now worn.It is a flattened D-shape in section with a slightly expanded outer edge. In the centre of the outer edge is a rectangular pin groove. The buckle frame connects to an integral flat, rectangular plate. The plate has expanded lobes at the shoulders with a central circular pin hole with a smaller circular rivet hole directly behind. The front face of the plate is decorated with a rectangular groove border. There is a transverse wavey line between the pin and rivet hole. The remainder of the plate is decorated with openwork decoration. This consists of three rectangles defined by grooved borders with the remains of further D-shaped openwork decoration directly below. This buckle measures 38.73mm in length, 30.83mm in width at the buckle, 25.50mm in width at the plate, 2.20mm in thickness, 7.31g in weight.There are similar examples recorded on the PAS database (SUR-761524), (SF-3CD2F4). However, no direct parallels could be found. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
