Title
Medieval Buckle
Description
English: Medieval copper alloy buckle frame, double-looped flat-sectioned frame, both loops trapezoidal, narrowed central bar, pin missing. The sides and edges are decorated with pairs of interlaced wavy rocker-arm lines, the resultant pointed oval each containing a short vertical rocker-arm 'dash'. There is a rounded rabbet at each corner. Length 42.5mm. Width 52mm. 2mm thick.

The corners of frames of this form and size are normally lobed (e.g. Whitehead 2003, no. 484) or plain (ibid. no. 483; Fingerlin 1971, 181, Abb. 297, dated to the first third of the 15th century). Rabbets frequently occur at the corners of double-looped frames with rectangular loops (e.g. Whitehead 2003, no. 482; Fingerlin 1971, 185, Abb. 301, dated to the second half of the 15th century). Whitehead 2003, nos. 482-4 are dated c.1450 - c.1600. A 15th-century date may be appropriate.
