Title
An incomplete post medieval cast copper-alloy double-looped buckle frame dating to the 17th century.
Description
English: An incomplete post medieval cast copper-alloy double-looped buckle frame dating to the 17th century. This buckle is flat and has a trapezoidal frame. Only one of the loops and the cross bar remain. Each outer edge is pointed with lobed knops at each corner. A notch as a pin rest is present on the outer edge of the frame with traces of a transverse groove which bisects the pin rest. The strap bar is sub-square in cross-section and at each end of the bar there is a small lobed knop. The pin is formed of a single strip of copper alloy which has been wrapped around the central bar. The pin is flat on the bottom and slightly convex on the top. It tapers away from the bar to form a point.

Parallels can be found on the PAS database: IOW-2F650B, IOW-D06552 and KENT-2F1762. These all date to the 17th century.

Dimensions: length: 21.38 mm; width: 24.46 mm; thickness: 2.57 mm; pin length: 22.20 mm; weight: 4.49g.
