Title
Post Medieval silver rectangular buckle frame
Description
English: An cast silver buckle frame. A rounded rectangular frame with a rectangular cross section. There is a break in one long side.The missing centre bar was separate and set along the long axis of the rectangle. The frame is thickened on the short sides and each has a small circular drilled hole to accomodate the bar. There are several marks on the back of the frame comprising a maker's mark (TW) at the mid point of one long side, a lion passant on the opposite long side. These two marks are both flanked by initials, IC around the maker's mark and DC around the lion. Jackson's Hallmarks (2006 reprint, Ian Pickford ed.) notes two maker's with the mark TW. One is a Thomas Wallis, a London spoonmaker in the late 18th century, but more probable is Thomas Wilmore , a buckle maker in Birmingham in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The oriantation of the centre bar suggests this is a hat buckle rather than a shoe buckle.
