A lovely early 19th century sterling & paste belt buckle. This 2-7/8" x 1-3/8" buckle features antique hand cut clear paste stones, and the central pinion hinged section swings either way, with three teeth to hold the belt opening and the section that holds the belt end has three shallower teeth to secure the other end of the belt. They are both secured to the centre of the belt but are made so each moves independently of the other. It is a substantial and very well constructed piece, and still retains traces of its original gilding on the back of the buckle. It is not hallmarked, which was fairly common, but has been tested & is guaranteed to be sterling grade silver. It is in excellent condition with no cracks, losses, corrosion, repairs or damage. A few of the paste stones have very minute surface edge abrasions, as may be expected, but none are serious or detract from the appearance of the buckle, and generally require a loupe to see, but without the loupe it appears in astonishingly great condition. Surface shipping is $6 (to the US - other spots may vary) - insured is higher. We do ship internationally. All of our prices are in $US.

An unusual sterling silver and agate Celtic design brooch c1910, in the shape of a broad ax. This brooch is hallmarked Chester 1910-11 and A & LL (makers mark). The great demand for the pebble jewellery led to its production in Chester and Birmingham. The top spike and blade of the ax are set with speckly grey and a white agate. It measures 2 3/8" in length, and is 11/16" at the widest. It is in excellent condition, and it closes with a c-clasp. The only detail to note is that the agates are not set flush to the silver as the earlier Scottish pieces were - they all sit up, and one agate is set a bit crooked (sits higher than the other two). This is not noticeable when it is being worn. Surface shipping is $6 (to the US - other spots may vary) and insured is higher. We do ship internationally. All of our prices are in $US.
