DESIGN FOR A BUCKLE-PLATE.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Design No. 21,241, dated December 15, 1891.

Application filed November 17, 1891. Serial N0.412,207. Term of patent 7 years.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, GEORGE E. ADAMS, of the city of Providence, in the county of Providence and State of Rhode Island, have invented and produced a new and original Dcsign for Buckles, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, forming part thereof.

The drawing is a view of the buckle, representing my new design.

The leading features of my design for buckles consist in the symmetrical outline formed by the combination of the several parts of the buckle, together with the surface ornamentation by which said outline is accentuated.

Number 2 in the drawing indicates the upper scalloped edge of a buckle-plate having the straight sides 3 3. At the lower ends of these sides the outline is carried inward sharply at angles to expose to view the curved lips 4. 1-. The outline then curves outward to 5 5, then inward to 6 6, from whence the two sides extend in parallel lines to 7 7, then inward at right angles to 8 8, and finally curving outward to 9 9, and then inward, meeting in the straight edge 10. An opening 11 is formed in that portion included Within the curves 9 9 and the straight edge 10, and the material curves upward from the minor and outer edges, as at 12.

Extending from the scalloped edges 2 and from the straight sides 3 3 are the convex rays 13, graduallynarrowing as they near the centerof the plate and separated by the bead ings ll. Near the outer end of the lower headings are 0ntwardly-curved lines 15 15, indicating, with the shape of the outline, small scrolls having horizontal lines extending from 6 6 toward the center of the buckle-plate.

The smaller ends of the rays 13 are covered near the lower center of the plate by the circular and scroll-ornamented plate 16, which extends partially into the curved opening I? of the square contained within the points 6 G and 7 '7, the remainder of this surface being ornamented in a pattern of alternate plain and traced squares and bordered by traced angles.

What I claim is- The design for buckles, as herein shown and described.

GEORGE E. ADAMS.
