An incomplete copper alloy buckle and hollow plate. A one piece moulding forms the loop and the front of the plate, another moulding is attached to form the underplate. The loop is non-symmetrical ovoid in plan, flattening along both long sides and has a 'frame' moulded in all the way around, but not at the plate. At this point the 'frame' continues around the plate. There is a suggestion of the outside edge of the loop being kidney shaped. The plate itself is square, with a shape resembling a saltire moulded into the top plate. The saltire is formed of f…
