Title
Asymmetrical shoe buckle
Description
English:
Post-Medieval asymmetrical copper alloy shoe buckle. The spindle and most of the anchor chape have survived, but the pin, which was most probably made from iron, has corroded away and there is only some iron residue left around the spindle and between the two attachment tubes of the chape. The exterior face of the frame has been decorated with scrolling, and corner knops at the chape end. The anchor chape is missing its terminal knop and is asymmetric. Boththe chape and spindle are noticeably crudely made, especially when contrasted with the quite intricate decorative work on the frame. It may well have been gilded, silvered, or tinned, when first manufactured. Similar in form to Whitehead's 599 (Whitehead, 1996, p96f). Dates from between c1680 and c1750.
