Thank you, Tatyana, thank you, Gene. I am happy that you enjoy the subject. Indeed, there is not much information on this topic, hopefuly that will change some day...
About the belt: it comes from the North-Eastern part of my country. It would be dated the first quarter of the XXth Century.
As much as I am interested in belts and other folk objects, I try to learn more about the weapons and tools used in the past (nowadays, it is all made in). Happy to know that there are still some traditional blacksmiths around, though.
