Amazon editoral review

Now in full colour, the book has over 800 illustrations to help with the identification of buckles which are by far the largest category of medieval and post medieval dress accessory to survive. The author has sought to obtain a balance between common and rare, plain and decorated buckles. Each chapter covers the development of a particular group of buckles based on the shape of the frame. The chapters are: Buckle manufacture, Single Looped Buckles: 1250-1650 Buckles with integral plates, 1250-1500 Clasp fasteners, 1300-1500 Annular buckles, 1350-1720 Spectacle buckles, 1350-1720 Rectangular and trapezoidal buckles, 1350-1700 Asymmetrical buckles, 1350-1700 Two piece buckles and 1660 1800 Buckles as jewellery.
