Ray Pohja Master Leather Carver Floral Belt Found

Recommended Posts

Chuck, the belt is lined. The front side of the belt is filegree cut and inlayed with a dark colored lizard skin I believe.

I picked up another enclosed display case for the belt. You weren’t able to get a good view of the belt while it was in the shadow box case.  This new clear plexiglass case shows it off better and you get a view of the entire belt.

I added a Ray Pohja doodle page copy for the background.

That is a very classy display case.  Looks like it came from a museum.

The doodle pages and printed works of his always fascinated me but they don't do justice to the actual work. That belt is amazing.

Thanks...

  it’s a nice presentation case that I picked up used and I really didn’t pay much for it. It does make the belt look like it’s part of an exhibit.

The belt will remain enclosed in this case as I’ll never be able to use it. It measures out to be a size 28” -29” belt and way too small for me. Must have been made for a very slim person.
