Title
Post-medieval spectacle buckle plate (profile)
Description
English: Cast copper alloy buckle plate with two separate iron rivets between the two sides of the folded plate. The plate has a waisted centre and ogival edge, terminating in a point. The fold is cut into two projections to house the central bar of the buckle frame within its loop. The bar is narrowed and recessed and has moulded lobed knops, at either end, which are broken on both sides, where they would have extended into the rest of the frame. The plate was probably attached to a double-looped spectacle buckle frame. Whitehead (1996)) illustrates a similar example on page 54, No.312, which is dated from c.1500-1650.
