Object type: BUCKLE
Broad period: EARLY MEDIEVAL
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Published
Copper-alloy buckle consisting of a plain D-shaped loop and a sub-rectangular sheet-metal plate folded around the loop and secured by a pair of copper-alloy rivets, rectangular slot for pin. Helen Geake writes: This is a small buckle of the kind which is occasionally found in fifth- or sixth-century graves, but which is very much more common in seventh- or early eighth-century graves. The style then appears to go out of use, although this may be due more to the fact that buckles were no longer being deposited in furnished graves than to them no longer being used.

Unusual rectangular buckle frame made of copper alloy and now in two pieces (very recent break). One side is missing (fairly recent break); the surviving side is a low triangle in section, 5.5 mm wide, and has a rudimentary animal head at either end. The animal heads have a moulding at the junction with the side, with two blind-drilled holes with a notch in between representing the ears; there is no attempt to delineate other features. At right angles to one head the outer edge emerges, 3 mm wide with a projecting grooved pin rest in the centre and a break at the other end. At righ…
