BUCKLE REVIEW


It is designed for a 4cm width belt.
I used it for my HAND CARVED Peony Belt.
Basically a die cast buckle with a hand painted cabochon insert.
Kay hand paints the centre piece for beautiful design.
She secures it in the place with a bracket and screws on back.
AUD$40

The buckle feels heavy in your hand and feels very rigid and sturdy and well suited for hand made leather belt.
