Title
vesica-shaped spectacle buckle
Description
English: Cast copper alloy double-looped ‘vesica-shaped’ spectacle buckle frame with punched annulets running along the outside edge of the frame. There is a perforated loop at either end of the narrowed pin bar, both of which are flush with the frame, and openwork in the shape of a heart within each pointed outer edge of the loop. The pin is missing.
   The length of the frame s 47.4 mm, the width of the frame is 27 mm and it is 2.2 mm thick. The frame weighs 7.67 g.
Whitehead (1996) illustrates a similar example, in shape, on p.67, No.416, and, in openwork, on p.69, No.434, both of which he dates to c.1550-1650.
