Object type: BUCKLE
Broad period: ROMAN
County: Warwickshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Roman (AD c. 350-450) an incomplete cast copper-alloy buckle with a zoomorphic frame. The frame is almost complete. It is a sub D-shape with a slightly narrowed strap bar. The loop opposite has a moulded notch with fine ring-and-dot motif either side. The exterior edge of the corners has a flat projection with abraded edges which would have been a horse. The other corner is broken, but not recently. The reverse is undecorated. The pin is moulded and curled around the frame. The terminal of the pin is slightly swollen and tapers to a blunt point. The surface of the frame has a light-gr…

Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Somerset
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Post-medieval copper-alloy symmetrical double-loop buckle frame dating to the period c. AD 1550-1700. The frame is plain and rectangular. It is bevelled externally and internally on the front, though far more shallowly externally. The rear surface is flat. The pin bar is trapezoidal in cross-section and has a similar width and thickness to the sides of the frame (2.0 x 1.4mm). The pin is missing. On the outer edge of the frame, at one end of the pin bar, there is a small raised knop, which appears to be a casting sprue or a misscast. The piece is covered by a dark green patina all ove…

Object type: BUCKLE
Broad period: EARLY MEDIEVAL
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete cast copper-alloy single looped buckle of probable late Early Medieval to Medieval date, c. 900-1100. Only around half the frame survives, with the rest of the frame, plate and pin missing in old damage. The buckle itself would originally have been 'D' shaped in plan view and plano-convex in section, with a flattened underside and rounded upper surface. The strap bar is constricted and slightly offset, while the front edge of the frame thickens heavily and appears to demonstrate a rather degraded zoomorphic terminal where it joins with the strap bar itself. Preserved in …
