BELT002 - Tinned Cumwhitton Belt Set

We have carved the masters for this belt in bone, and then pressed them into cuttle fish to create a single use mold. We then poured motlen brass into the two-part molds to create the buckle and strap end. Once these were throughly cleaned up, we tinned them with motlen pewter. These were then fitted them to a 3/4" wide leather belt length with hand made domed rivets. The leather has been stained dark brown and punched with 9 holes 1 inch apart starting 4 inches from the strap end. The belt length measures 44" excluding fittings.

These fittings are based on a find from Cumwhitton in Cumbria, England.

This listing is for the item shown in the photos. We may make more of these at some point, but what you can see on the website represents what we currently have in stock.
