BUCKLE

Unique ID: NLM-F1D705

Object type certainty: Certain
Workflow status: Awaiting validation

Copper alloy buckle. Cast short single looped buckle frame, bevelled within the loop, with a separate copper alloy spindle and with a bow-shaped outer edge with a deeply defined pin rest set centrally. The stub of a thick sheet metal pin is wrapped around the strap bar. Extensive traces of white metal plating appear. Though similar to kidney-shaped buckle frames of the Late Medieval to Early Post-Medieval periods, the finish of the object may point to a more recent date. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1500-1550.
