Title
IOW-4E53D7 Post-Medieval Buckle
Description
English: A post-Medieval cast copper-alloy double-looped buckle frame with trapezoidal loops (c. 1620- c. 1680 AD).

Part of one loop and the pin are missing.
The frame is symmetrical in plan, flat at the front and rear.
Each loop would have been of similar size and shape and they are rectangular in cross-section.
The outer edge of the complete loop has lobed knops at the corners and a triangular protrusion at the centre where there is a shallow pin-rest. There is an incised line running down the front of the outer edge. The narrowed bar is 'D'-shaped in cross-section, flat at the rear. At each end of the bar there is a small knop.
This buckle frame has a mid-green patina which is lost in places due to corrosion. The breaks are old.
25.1 x 22.4 x 2.1mm. Weight: 2.99g.

Similar buckles have been published and dated c. 1620-c. 1680 (Whitehead 1996: 84, ref: 524).
