Colorful Leather VCut Panels and Rings Steampunk Belly Dancer Belt or Baldric
for costume occasions or everyday: worn alone or as a carrier for pouches or weapon frogs this unique belt is the perfect accent for your Victorian adventurer’s look but the ring and riveted section belt looks great with any fashion from medieval to modern.  (Vest, Shirt, Ascot and pouch are sold separately)
The main body of the belt belt is comprised of 5 angle cut on ends rectangular panels (2-1/4” wide); all panels are line carved and painted bison brown round each panel at 1/4”  The panels are stripe carved, a 1" center smooth navy painted stripe is surrounded by 1/2" sunburst stamped stripes, that are dyed British tan.
The highly decorated “front” panel, as this was designed as a steampunk belly dancer’s hip belt, that buckles in back,
measures 8-1/2” long—the navy middle stripe is almost completely covered with a decorative ¾” bison brown strap that links small brass d-rings to a stamped oval leather center piece, colored navy, British Tan and oxblood.
This centerpiece is riveted and glued to the strapping with copper rivets and is decorated with a skeleton key, little antique brass handcuffs charm and a multi colored metal gear bezel.
Both ends of this panel are decorated with
¾” antique brass “Catherine Wheel” gear buttons and the strapping is held to the belt with antique nickle rivets.
All sewing is done with black waxed braided cord, but one end of the little handcuffs is left free to dangle (you may wish to secure this with superglue to keep from losing the dangling end).
Either end of this largest panel is secured to the belt with the ¾” bison brown line carved strapping (that serves as the decorative strap) to 1-1/2” antique brass rings, glued and riveted in place with antique brass rivets.
The smaller panels continue the thematic carving of navy, British Tan stamped and bison brown edging.
The two nearest the larger panel serve as the side fronts and measure 4-1/2” long with larger 1-1/2” gear buttons (“Catherine Wheels”) centered on the panels and alternating copper or antique nickle finish.
These are linked to the side back panels (measuring 5-1/2” long with 1” antique brass rings and these side back panels echo the alternating button, stripe theme.
Measuring 36-1/2” the main belt panels are linked to the buckling panels with the smaller 1” antique brass tone rings.
The plain matching extended back v-cut panel (buckling carrier with holes) measures 14-3/4” with 7 holes set 1” apart starting at 6” is linked to the ring (and the main panel) with ¾” line carved bison brown strapping, glued and secured with antique brass tone rivets.
Likewise the coordinating  5-1/2” x 2-1/4” v cut panel that houses the simple oval 1-1/4” antique brass tone buckle (that holds the buckling carrier flat, eliminating need for a belt loop) is sewn securely with waxed braided cord, glue and rivets and is linked to the main body of the belt with strapping, rivets and rings, as is the buckling carrier, as described above.
