Buckle

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Square-shaped metal object with rounded corners and wavy sides, featuring intricate filigree design along the edges. The filigree pattern resembles vines with leaves and flowers. Two large letters, "R" and "E", are prominently displayed in the center, made of a shiny metal with darker spots. A thin vertical line separates the letters. Circular patterns resembling wheels or flowers are on either side of the letters. The object appears to be made of silver or gold-colored metal.
