This charming Victorian sash buckle is made of gilt brass with a mother of pearl inlay. It comes in its original box.

It measures 3 and 3/8” (8.5cms) wide and 15/16” (2.4cms) across the centre. It weighs 26.4 grams.

The mother of pearl inlay is decorated with raised floral and leaf motifs. Some tiny areas are missing but this is not very apparent to the naked eye. The beaded edges are decorated with elaborate scrolling motifs.

On the reverse the buckle section pulls away to insert the fabric. The mechanism works well.

It sits in its original , wooden cream silk lined box. The lid is covered with red leather. It has a catch at the front . Inevitably it shows some signs of age.

This lovely piece of Victoriana will arrive carefully protected and presented.
