<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Woutinc, post: 4573964, member: 78422&quot;]It&#039;s a georgian shoe buckle. Style dating 1720-1790.</p><p>Your&#039;s seem to fit mostly to the first. Square, position flowers. 1760-1790 then?</p><p>And indeed. For these types 6 mechanisme types are known. You have two of those.</p><p><br /></p><p>BEWARE to conservate them. With warm wax or whatever.</p><p>The bar is fit with an iron pin. Usually these type of buckles loose their bar while the iron is corroded away and the shape and spong falls out.</p><p>So warm wax, that it conservates that iron pin within. Shallowly isn&#039;t enough.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here some references. I have more, but not found exacly yours yet.</p><p><br /></p><p>Very nice. Love these stylish types <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie99" alt=":woot:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]406491[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]406492[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
