| Title |
Late early-medieval to medieval buckle |
||
| Description |
English: A very unusual and complete Late Saxon/Anglo-Scandinavian Urnes-style buckle, comprising an elaborate openwork sub D-shaped frame, the centre of the outer edge of which has a narrow animal-head with pellets for eyes, projecting from between two perforated lugs, perhaps representing tails. Each side ends in a large animal-head in profile, gripping one end of the separate narrow bar. On the inner edge is a notch for the pin. A short triangular pin, in the form of a beaked head, is integral with the trapezoidal plate. The pin has moulded detail of the ears where it springs from the plate, which is decorated in relief with the remaining interlaced body of the creature. The plate has recessed shoulders, both with a flanking pierced lug on reverse where attached to the separate narrowed bar of the frame. There is a rivet-hole at both angles of the attachment end, one containing the remains of a copper alloy rivet. A small impression of cloth survives in corrosion on the reverse. Worn and corroded purplish metal, pale green separate bar.
Frame length 30mm, width 25mm. Plate and integral pin length 33mm, width 19mm. Combined length 44mm. Weight 13.90 g For plate see LANCUM-935214 and NMS-5F9544; for frame see WILT-ABB86B. 11th-12th century. |
