| Title |
Medieval zoomorphic buckle plate |
||
| Description |
English: A cast copper-alloy buckle plate of Medieval date, c. 1100-1200.
The buckle plate is composed of a number of pieces, with an openwork triangular frame, a copper-alloy sheet backing (including the hinge fitting for the buckle frame), and three copper-alloy rivets connecting the sheet to the plate frame. The plate frame is triangular with the body split into three openwork panels. The peak of the triangle has a zoomorphic terminal of a wolf/dog head similar in style to those seen on strap ends and buckle frames of the period. The sheet backing the plate is also triangular in plan with a rectangular extension folded back under the base of the buckle frame, leaving two hinge-loops. The three rivets have domed heads and are found in the corners of the plate frame, with the rivet behind the zoomorphic terminal retaining a sub-square sheet of copper alloy at its base that acted as a washer with the buckle plate was still attached to a belt/strap. A similar example from a late 13th-century context in Canterbury can be found illustrated in Garrard and Henig (in Blockley et al. 1995, 1063, fig. 459, F655). An example with frame and pin can be found illustrated in Hammond (2014, 666; ref. M12-0214). |
