Dragon Scale Belt

The buckle wears the scales, and the belt simply goes along with it.

This dragon scale belt is from the Primitive Collection, in leather and sterling silver. Cast silver buckles have long been a way to put a small sculpture where it will actually be seen. The rectangular buckle is cast with a field of raised, rounded scales, larger toward the center and smaller at the edges, finished in an oxidized silver with the high points left bright. The belt is a wide band of dark brown leather with braided edges running along both sides. A central ribbed panel gives it a slightly glossy, reptilian look.

A little mythology at the waist never hurt anyone.
