It's a common find in the UK...you should get more in the states, as it fits the Colonial period Smiley

They could do some amazing things with what they had to work with back then. This harness boss isn't a buckle but is colonial who would have thought they could make something like this back then

What's unusuall about Fondation Hunters Buckle, is that it also has a plate attached at the bar icon_scratch this ones the same minus the plate and the tonges gone, but some leather still remains...same time period read2

Ok now, looking at the back I say you're probably right early 1900's   I didn't notice how it is kind of hollowed out on the back. Sure looked colonial from the other side though

These items are thin, stamped brass--and they date to turn of the century (1900).  The one SS posted is cast brass.  I only find the type in the original post at my late Victorian sites.

  hello

If you look at my original post  Roll Eyes I said what type of Buckle it was read2 it still is, I only said it fitted the Colonial period because of the time they dated from 1500s Undecided I can see that the Buckle Kugers posted is indeed stamped brass, but it doesn't detere from the fact that its a.....Double Looped Assymetrical Buckle, which is what the poster asked Wink also the one Kuger posted doesn't have the treyfoil on the bottom loop read2
