Buckle

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Buckle by unknown artist. A bronze-colored metal buckle with a circular shape. The buckle comprises two symmetrical halves with a central circular protrusion surrounded by a raised border. Each half features a raised design with curled tendrils or scroll-like patterns. The buckle appears to be made of bronze or a similar metal alloy with signs of wear and aging. The background transitions from black at the top to gray at the bottom. The buckle seems to have a textured and weathered surface with visible signs of patination. The central circle features a raised ball-like element. The edges of the buckle are slightly rough and uneven. The overall design suggests an ancient or historical piece. The buckle is set against a plain background.
