Title
spectacle buckle
Description
English: Incomplete cast copper alloy double-looped buckle with external lobed knops at each corner of the frame and at either end of the strap bar, missing most of its right loop and its pin. The remaining loop is oval in plan and plano-convex in section with a bevelled inner edge. The bar is narrowed and recessed and triangular in section. There are patches of black lacquer remaining on both the upper face and the back of the frame.

Whitehead (1996) illustrates a similar buckle frame on page 63, No.382, which is dated from c.1550-1650.
