Title
A Post-Medieval copper alloy buckle
Description
English: Post medieval cast trapezoidal double-looped buckle frame. The loops widen away form the strap bar and are symmetrical apart from their different outer sides. One has a cusped outer edge shaped into four rounded knops, two wider flanking two smaller, with very large projections from the corners. These projections curve away form the frame before ending in large circular terminals. The other loop has large rounded knops in the corners and the outer side is expanded in the centre into a pair of triangle points. The strap bar is narrowed and mostly missing to a break. The pin is also missing.

Whitehead (2003: 84) illustrates a similar example, no. 527, which he dates to c. AD 1620-1680.
