yes it's a great community here, some really helpful people. ( including yourself) like I said all info and ideas welcome. Were you thinking along the lines of it being flat at the back? That would be more like a furniture piece then, I thought that myself but one has the centre in it. But again I'm not sure

It's more likely a parts from a bracelet...

Yes I didn't expect the Same on other side very interesting silver searcher sounds like he might be on to something does it look like they could have been linked together at one time ?

I think you can rule out buckle. SS maybe onto to it, although maybe a waist belt instead, not really sure.

There are quite a few reasons why its not a buckle, but one clue is, that 'normally' you never get more than 2 of any buckle in any one place.

I have the same feeling as SS here, elements for a bracelet. The back being the same as the front enforces this thought, since that would make them likely cast rather than stamped.

looking closer I see all have a split on one end... This allow for linking ?

I assume you mean the thin end which would make sense, as I would expect some smaller link chain between each piece.

 

[joesdigs]

I'll get closer look later.. But see the one that had whet I thought was a centre part.. That may have been the link.
