Fabulous antique belt fully intact with original satin fabric belt:
*Skinny satin fabric belt meticulously hand sewn and styled with horizontal pleats and matching inside lining
*Stamped or reposse brass floral grouping focal point hook meets to create the perfect bouquet
*Gleaming gold gilding remains to really show off the look
*Waist accentuating V or crossover pattern
*Length is adjustable by sliding to your desired position
*Currently set to catch or latch at about 28" long - I think that is close to the max length if you would want the decorative tail or finial end to peek out. If not you could gain an additional inch as is. You could adjust anywhere down in size from where it is at comfortably. If you would want to unstitch one inside end there would be an additional 3" in original fabric length to play with. Another thought would be to splice in a segment of elastic or other material to custom fit.
*Buckle itself measures about 2 1/2" across x 2 1/4" long or tall when the end with the single flower is hooked or attached to the side with the three flowers. The black fabric belt is about an inch wide - and that is also the width that the buckle hardware was meant to hold as the metal bar is about an inch long also
*Great condition for the age - some very minor small thread-bare wear areas on satin from age and use. Virtually unnoticeable, so slight they didn't show in the photos and they requires close scrutiny in person.
View & enlarge photographs to closely inspect fine details and to determine the amount of patina, and/or wear - as most older pieces by nature normally have some degree of both. Please utilize the scroll arrows beside the photos to allow yourself the opportunity to view them all.
