Traditional Belt

[Youri]

Hi! I just finished a new belt. Its ornaments came from central europe (Ac. 700-1000)
The hunnis, magyar, warriors and nobles (woman and men too) wore belts, like this. (with more additional ornaments)
 

I hope you like it.

I hope soon i can start the helmet project.

Cool looking. Solid work.

Nice. Do I understand correctly, this is real vintage hardware?

If so, that makes it even cooler.

Very nice! Where did you get the hardware?

I like the way the stamping sort of mimics the pattern on the buckle and end piece.

Sadly it's just replicas, but the pattern comes from archeology.
We have many of these. Like this and this

They used ornaments like this from Bc 1000 -> Ac 1500.

Thank you! I'm in contact with many engraver and smith. But one day i'd like to make an own "workshop" for that.

It's still really cool though.
