Record ID: PUBLIC-ACA0D0
Object type: BUCKLE
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Cheshire East
Workflow stage: Published
Post-medieval copper-alloy double-looped asymmetrical buckle frame, perhaps from a shoe, with white-metal coating. One loop is rectangular, the other D-shaped internally and with a pointed outer edge. The central bar appears to have been of iron and survives, although very corroded. There is a good parallel in Whitehead (2003, no. 598), also with an iron bar and white-metal coating; Whitehead dates this example to c. 1660-c. 1720. These buckles are usually small, and this one measures 26.37 x 21.61mm. It is 4.46mm thick and weighs 5g.

Object type: BUCKLE
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL

Fragment of a cast copper alloy two loop bucke. A rectangular section stem or shank which extends between two flat elements with, in so far as they remain, curved edges, and both bearing a rayed pattern of grooves converging on the stem. Rusty stains on the central shank hint at the former presence of a ferrous metal component. This identification was kindly offered by Laura Burnett, with confirmation of this offered by Rob Webley, who comments as follows: 'This looks like the pin bar of a post-medieval buckle, the rust from the missing iron pin. Cf. Whitehead (2003, 65; e.g. no. 402)…

Object type: FINGER RING
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Buckinghamshire
Workflow stage: Published
Description: A gold finger ring in the form of a D-sectioned band. The outer surface of this band bears a moulded herringbone pattern, with traces of niello or dark enamel remaining in some of the cells, and a single plain area, which may represent evidence of an enlargement. The inscription, 'SEDVN DA ME', extends around the inner surface of the band. The meaning of the inscription is unclear although it is possible that it is meant to be the Latin words SECUNDA ME meaning follow me. This inscription is executed in upper-case letters and contains traces of a dark infill.
