Title
Early Medieval Buckle
Description
English: Early Medieval curved rectangular copper alloy buckle plate. The buckle plate has traces of gilding on the geometric pattern on the front of the plate. The design consists of two borders of wrigglework one inside the other edged with plain lines. The two tabs that looped round the now missing buckle and pin have a line of wriggle work across them also. Four rivet holes in the front of the plate, two of which appear to retain the rivets. The gilding appears to have been better preserved in the areas covered by the rivet heads. The buckle appears to have been formed from one piece of metal which has been folded to form the front and back plates.
