Title
Post Medieval knee buckle
Description
English: A small silver buckle. The frame is oval and convex at the front. The back is hollowed. The frame is decorated with a relief repeating pattern of framed ovals with dashes between. Attached to the integral centre bar is a tapering chqape with a stud at the end. On the underside of the chape are stamped two sets of the initials RT. The expanded head of the stud is also decorated with what appears to be a facing bust in a rope pattern frame (the decoration is in relief). In the notch of the chape attached to the centre bar is a lump of iron corrosion, probably from an iron pin.
