Decorative Buckle Help

[burlington]

I found this old decorative buckle at the same site as the flintlock pocket pistol I posted last week. It measures 2 1/4" on the outside and the inside diameter is 1". There are no backmarks to be discerned. The face has gold gilt and enamel finish. As you can see, I have done very little cleaning. Thanks for your help.

Very nice piece.

I'm guessing Victorian era enamelled sash buckle - 1880's to 1900ish.

I not so sure it's a buckle. It might be a pin or hairpiece made to look like a buckle. The reason I'm thinking this is because the tongue on the buckle is not functional and it has the piece going across the back.

Attractive ladie's buckle. Extremely well preserved!
