Description
English: A Post-Medieval copper-alloy double-loop buckle frame dating to the period c. AD 1600 - 1700. The frame is rectangular in plan and D-Shaped in cross section with a convex front and flat back. A central axis bar divides two rectangular loops. At either end of the short edges there is a knop with a central groove for the pin to rest. There are small lobed protrusions on either end of the axis bar which are very worn but still visible from the buckle. The pin is missing. The object is a light green colour with patches of darker green near its edges.

The frame is; 39mm long, 23.3mm wide, 3.5mm thick and weighs 7.6g.

Whitehead (2003, 79) illustrates a similar frame, no.486, with plain knops at the ends of the strap bar, which he dates to the 17th century.
