Title
IOW-F665E0 Medieval Annular Buckle
Description
English: An incomplete Medieval iron annular buckle (c. 1250-c. 1450).

It has been assumed that the object is a buckle rather than a brooch as there is no obvious constriction for the pin. The frame is circular in plan and circular in cross-section. However, some of the frame is incomplete due to damage or corrosion. The iron pin is fused to the frame and appears to be circular in cross-section. It has a length of 15.52mm and a width at the loop of 3.40mm.

The frame and pin are heavily corroded overall.


Annular buckles are difficult to date due to the lack of diagnostic decorative features.

Whitehead (1996, 17) gives a wide date range of c. 1250 - c. 1450. However, iron examples found in London illustrated in Egan and Pritchard (1991, 59-60) tend to come from late 13th-century/early 14th-century contexts (c.1270-c. 1400).
