Shoe Buckle Frame?

[Kirk PA]

I found this yesterday at our latest Colonial site. It read at "TABS." Is it part of a shoe buckle frame? I would appreciate any help.

Thanks!

Kirk...I think the back would be flat if it were a part of shoe buckle

I was thinking the same thing. It looks more Victorian.

Possibly part of a piece of costume jewelry, like you say Victorian but could be slightly earlier

Could be a part of a, late 1800, light oval (or circular) brass picture frame !

Does it have loops on the back? If so, my vote is "cloak fastener"--and it would be OLD if that were the case. HB dug one at our special site earlier in the week.

It doesn't appear to have loops. Nice piece of information, Buck.

It's to thin to have been a shoe buckle. I'm thinking a piece of jewelry or decoration from a piece of furniture or something.
