Here we have an amazing and early Cossack solid silver wedding belt from Russia.
The belt is constructed of heavy niello decorated prices that overlap and are stitched to a very heavily patinated leather belt.
From the construction and patina, I would date it to mid 19c or earlier.
The belt is heavy & meaures 83cm when laid flat.
The piece is in very nice original condition and has not been cleaned or heavily polished to maintain its patina.
The deign is engraved wit...h areas of niello and areas of light silver gilt.
Thanks for looking and good luck
