Record ID: NLM-4A62F7
Object type: BUCKLE
Broad period: EARLY MEDIEVAL
County: East Riding of Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
Copper alloy buckle. Cast single looped or D-shaped buckle frame with a prominently projecting and grooved lip formed as a Borre style beast head on its outer edge, and with a narrowed and offset strap bar. The former might be taken as an early feature but the latter is a typical feature of high medieval buckles. Though beastliness in ornament is often considered a Viking trait a Romanesque date might equally be ventured here, as with much sculpture inhabited by Northern creatures; the beast head here might equally be read as a helmeted mask. Suggested date: Early Medieval to Medi…

Copper alloy buckle. Cast D-shaped or single looped buckle with an expanded bulbous outer edge on which pronounced radial ribs flank a broad and bordered pin rest, these details appearing on the display side only, and with devolved beast heads gripping the ends of the strap bar. Dave Haldenby kindly considers the beast heads to be more realistically modelled than on other examples in the group and the outer edge to be less expanded - perhaps in its relative thickness [MF]. A spot of rust on the strap bar may hint at the loss of an iron pin, which was presumably attached when the buckle…
