Buckle Loop

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image depicts a buckle loop by Buckle Loop, an object made of dark-colored metal with a rectangular base and a loop extending from it. The metal appears worn, with visible signs of rust or tarnish. The loop is oval-shaped and attached to the base on one side. A small gap is present on the other side of the loop, where it meets the base. The background of the image is white, providing a clean contrast to the dark metal object.
