Title
Post medieval buckle chape
Description
English: Post medieval cast copper alloy stud chape from a buckle. The chape was attached to the iron spindle from a drilled frame shoe or knee buckle. One of the tubes through which the spindle ran survives, the other is lost. The chape is a flat plate, 28.2mm long and 2.2mm thick; from the spindle it expands slightily to 14.2mm then curved inwards to 6.7mm and the back out to an oval terminal 9.1mm wide. A stud progects from the terminal consisting of a circular stem topped by a domed circular head; it is 5.7mm tall and the head is 9.1mm in diameter. The entire piece weighs 5.12 grams. Whitehead (2003) page 96-7 suggests this form of chape was predominently used on shoe or knee buckles from c.1660-1720.
