Caucasus belt buckles and more...
I blame mahratt ...☺☻☺
who corrected me when I made a mistake thinking a filligree beltbuckle was from the Balkans but actually came from the Caucasus. So instead of adding my new finding in the Bosnian bichaq thread, I better start a new thread in the corrrect chapter prior getting warned by a mod...☻☻☻ Last edited by gp; 2nd June 2022 at 11:14 PM. |

my latest "treasure" is neither a silver one nor a belt buckle but a brass silver plated bracelet.
So very interesting and I hope more of these kind of items will surface. Do any of you have some or seen some ? Anyway, thnx a lot mahratt for your guidance. Most highly appreciated !

Great looking buckles (and bracelet) guys. I've always found these buckles interesting. Here is one of mine. I believe it's Caucasian. It's in good, serviceable condition, but does show regular usage. The only distraction is a pierced hole in the center cone. It just so happens that the tip of a kindjal blade fits in the hole perfectly. Makes me think the hole came about from a combat situation.
