buckle I.D.'s

[jhamner]

I pulled these pics from my Today's Finds post in the hopes that someone could help me identify and date the three buckles(?} pictured on the right side of the photo. ( Object on left is just a very thin brass tag with a hole in each end.) Any ideas? Thanks!

The top one looks a lot like the ones used on old British motorcycles to hold down the battery

Lower right buckle, based on size and light-weight construction is likely a ladies sash/dress belt buckle - early to mid 20th C.

I feel that most of these are either utilitarian or clothing related buckles or strap-ends, except for the brass plate in the upper left corner.
This is likely a trunk or box makers plate, if you clean it up a bit you'll probably find some writing underneath the verdigris.

As Matt already mentioned... "the sash buckle in the lower right corner."
Based on it's plain unassuming style, I'm thinking it's more likely to be a men's clothing buckle.
