An incomplete cast copper alloy probable buckle frame, of Medieval to Post Medieval dating (c. 1350 to 1720). The frame is crescent like in plan, and with a sub circular cross section. The curvature and cross section are indicative that it was originally part of the frame of a double looped (spectacle buckle). The buckle frame is a dark mid green colour, with an even surface patina. The patina has been abraded in a couple of locations, probably due to time spent in the plough soil. The brooch measures 33.26m in length, 12.39mm wide and 4.49mm thick. It wei…
