hardware Supplier for Solid Brass Hardware

[IvoryCreek]

Anybody know where to buy solid brass hardware (in the U.S.) with finish like this (not antique)? 

O-, D- rings, swivels, etc.

I'm checked out Weaver, Tandy, and Buckle Guy, but i'm especially drawn to those flat ones, look really high end to me.

thanks!

buckleguy -one of the best hardware manufacturers i've seen.
check on their website catalog - different finishes, sizes - superior quality.

While Buckleguy do have both good sortiment and a wide range of hardware to a fantastic price, I'm not too sure they are manufacturing their hardware themself. The hardware are identical to other suppliers from Taiwan and China and I have written and asked them several times where there hardware is made (as I want to be able to tell my customers) but without any answer. I emailed them, asked them on social media, called but got disconnected! Twice!. A bit suspicious. Don't get me wrong, I actually don't mind stuff from Asia. Good quality is good quality. It is just that so many seem to assume that Buckleguy is 'made in the USA', but when asked for it they remain silent. Not very transparent. At least Hardware Elf tells you where they source their hardware from, and several of their stock is identical to Buckleguys...

Try here, . . . I've used them several times, . . . great people to deal with.  I don't know about international shipping, etc, . . . but you will most likely be able to get just about anything you want from them.

Elf Hardware is the retail arm of Ohio Travel Bag...according to the OTB website. FWIW

Thank you all. yea Ohio Travel Bag's hardware section is identical to Elf Hardware's.

Although Buckle Guy does in fact receive his stuff from overseas, I put all of my hardware orders through him as everything (regardless of finish) is solid brass and of much better quality than any of the other sources (to include OTB, which I do use for other things).  Buckle Guy also is a supplier of Tiger Thread (for those of you who care) that can be purchased in larger quantities than the more traditional sources (tired of those stupid little "dowel" spools, BG actually has it in bulk).  Highly recommend Buckle Guy if you want to have quality and he also does offer quantity discounts.  Shipping is fast too and spot on with order fulfillment.

Hey NVLeatherworx, have you ever purchased leather from them like their French tooling sides? They look too cheap to be legit? 

Thanks!

Actually I guess that price isn't too far off. About $8 per square foot though that seems a little cheap for premium french imported leathers.
