{"product_id":"black-scratch-texture-bogart-enamel-coral-reef-belt","title":"Black Scratch Texture Bogart Enamel Coral Reef Belt","description":"\u003cp\u003eThere are belts that whisper and belts that speak. This one does both at once — and that's precisely what makes it so interesting.\u003cbr\u003eThe leather is new to our collection and deserves a moment of attention before the buckle takes over entirely. The surface carries a fine etched scratch texture — not vintage, not distressed, but something altogether more deliberate and contemporary. Think less worn-in, more worked-on. The dark navy-black ground with its intricate linear etching has a quiet visual complexity that rewards close inspection — a surface that adds genuine intrigue to what might otherwise read as simply a black belt. It's the kind of leather that brings textural depth to an all-black outfit without introducing colour or contrast, just layer upon layer of considered detail.\u003cbr\u003eAnd then the buckle. Our coral reef design in solid brass — a dense, organic mass of branching forms covered entirely in cold black enamel, with Swarovski crystals set into the tips of the coral spines like tiny, luminous deep-sea organisms catching a distant light. It is genuinely extraordinary. Sculptural in a way that few buckles ever achieve, it sits on the belt less like hardware and more like a found object — something pulled from the ocean floor and set in silver. The combination of the dark enamel and the crystal tips gives it a depth that shifts as the light moves across it.\u003cbr\u003eAgainst the etched leather beneath, the effect is dramatic without being loud — two dark, textural surfaces finding each other with complete confidence.\u003cbr\u003eHandcrafted in our small Spanish atelier, where belts are still made one at a time by people who care deeply about getting it right.\u003cbr\u003eHow to wear it: All black — this is the belt that answers the question of how to make a monochrome outfit genuinely interesting. Head to toe black with this at the waist and nothing else needs to work hard. A piece that stops people in their tracks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlt tag: Elliot Rhodes black etched scratch texture leather belt with solid brass cold black enamel coral reef buckle and Swarovski crystal spine details\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Elliot Rhodes","offers":[{"title":"Black","offer_id":57670513885558,"sku":"X059 628T","price":435.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0610\/3731\/4247\/files\/X059628T_1.jpg?v=1776184395","url":"https:\/\/elliotrhodes.com\/products\/black-scratch-texture-bogart-enamel-coral-reef-belt","provider":"Elliot Rhodes Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
