Description: | Cast copper alloy garter buckle frame that is sub-square in shape with a drilled frame for a separate spindle. The frame has angled corners, creating an octagon. Within the frame the spindle holds a double-spiked tongue, and there are patches of iron corrosion product or iron oxide at either end, suggesting that the spindle within is made of iron.Whitehead (1996) illustrates similar garter buckles on page 114, nos.733 & 736, which are dated from c.1720-1799.
