VTG CZECH BELT BUCKLE~LAPIS GLASS CABS~ORNATE BRASS~ J WEIDNER HAMBURG~IN BOX
In my collection for many tears I've decided to put this piece up for sale. Gorgeous and ornate this belt buckle is obviously Czech or Hungarian with its distinct design elements and construction. The metal is brass, ornate and very substantial, embossed with Victorian designs, very beautiful. Tiny glass pearls and large glass cabochons are set throughout the piece, they really look like gemstone lapis, incredibly beautiful. This comes in its original box which states " J Weidner Hamburg 39 Alsterdamm im hotel de l' Europe. The box has some very faint writing on the back of it though I can't make it out. I took a lot of photos to show the condition of both box and buckle, they have a few issues. The buckle is missing 9 of the tiny pearls and one of the glass cabochons has a small chip. I know the pearls can be replaced, I was going to have it done but after 13 years I'm thinking I might not get to it. The outside of the box has some tape around one edge and 2 corners, however, the inner lining is lovely. The buckle measures 2~3/4" long x 3~1/4" across. The box measures 5~1/2" across x approx. 3~1/2" long. This will be a wonderful item to add to any vintage jewelry, accessory collection.
