A post-medieval copper-alloy double looped oval buckle, dating to c. AD 1550-1650, incomplete insofar as it is missing its pin. The frame is decorated with bilobed knops at two symmetrical points on the outer edge of each loop. There should be a pair of rosettes positioned at the centre of the outer edge of each loop but the design is very worn. Lobed knops protrude at either end of the pin bar, which is narrowed and slightly bent inwards. The frame is bent in profile, most likely from damage rather than use.  Measurements: 49 mm in length, 35 mm in widt…

A distorted copper-alloy, symmetrical, double-loop buckle, of post-medieval date (c. 16th century), incomplete only insofar as it is missing its pin. The buckle consists of a pair of oval loops. A small rounded knop is present either end of the central pin bar.
