So I ordered some 9/10 oz European bridle in Havana brown  from rjf leather recently for another project. But lo' and behold my dad asked for a belt on his Christmas list. He wanted a 1" belt for work (superintendent for construction and doesn't want it  to dig in) So I thought this would be a perfect situation to showcase the beauty in this leather. The buckle is a 1" nickel brass heelvar buckle from buckle guy.   I took the pics in my makeshift lightbox so if they look funny that's probably why. Critiques are welcome. I'm waiting on wax to finish the edges a bit more.

Thanks. The leather is really nice to work with too. And the color is a lot richer than I could get in the pictures. It's a nice deep chocolate brown. I'm making a dog harness with it too. I hope it works out haha.

Sure it will!  I cant get leather to come out looking like it should so I know what you mean.

@Bayou Bengal, thanks! you can find it at buckleguy.com. he has a large selection of quality brass hardware. It is solid brass. I was impressed with it myself. This is obviously the 1" version but I think he has a 1.5" too
