{"id":7330124759239,"title":"Bronze Sculpted Winged Scarab Buckle 40mm","handle":"bronze-sculpted-winged-scarab-buckle-40mm","description":"\u003cp\u003eAll the way back in 2009 we had a fortuitous meeting with sculptress Marcela Ganly whose body of work focuses predominantly on the animal world. However, our mutual passion for belts inspired us to try and adapt her wonderful sculpting skills and our design experience to suit the rather smaller format of a belt buckle. Several months and many trips to the foundry later we came up with our first collection of Bronze, Alpaca (German Silver) \u0026amp; Silver Plated buckles, each one limited edition, signed and numbered. These buckles are hand cast using the traditional lost wax technique and hand finished so no two buckles will ever look or be quite the same. As for this particular buckle, for many years our customers have been asking us to make a scarab...so we decided that now was the time. This design is reminiscent of Ancient Egyptian scarab jewellery with the wings spread open, hard not to be absorbed by the detail and the way the scarab seems to rise up from the surface to really bring him to life. This version is made in bronze, retaining all of the natural characteristics of the material and will be the most wonderful addition to your belt collection. You can pair it with almost any leather from classic unlined styles if you want to make it more casual, to something more detailed or textured if you want to make more of a statement piece for smarter casual or eveningwear.\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2022-04-28T14:41:18+01:00","created_at":"2022-04-28T14:41:20+01:00","vendor":"Elliot Rhodes","type":"buckle","tags":["Buckle Style-Animal Inspired","Buckle Style-Plate Style","Buckle-Material-Bronze","Buckle-Type-Animal Inspired","Buckle-Type-Limited Edition","Buckle-Width-40mm","Gender-Men","Gender-Women","Style-Casual","Style-Smart-Casual"],"price":39500,"price_min":39500,"price_max":39500,"available":false,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42147625402567,"title":"Antique Gold","option1":"Antique Gold","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"U288","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":{"id":33954839920839,"product_id":7330124759239,"position":1,"created_at":"2022-04-28T14:41:21+01:00","updated_at":"2025-02-04T19:09:44+00:00","alt":"Antique Gold","width":1900,"height":1266,"src":"\/\/elliotrhodes.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/U288_front.jpg?v=1738696184","variant_ids":[42147625402567]},"available":false,"name":"Bronze Sculpted Winged Scarab Buckle 40mm - Antique Gold","public_title":"Antique Gold","options":["Antique Gold"],"price":39500,"weight":0,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"featured_media":{"alt":"Antique Gold","id":26316672893127,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.501,"height":1266,"width":1900,"src":"\/\/elliotrhodes.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/U288_front.jpg?v=1738696184"}},"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[]}],"images":["\/\/elliotrhodes.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/U288_front.jpg?v=1738696184","\/\/elliotrhodes.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/buckles-packaging_e9e988dc-6478-4e1c-9040-2838933845d8.jpg?v=1738696184"],"featured_image":"\/\/elliotrhodes.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/U288_front.jpg?v=1738696184","options":["Finish"],"media":[{"alt":"Antique Gold","id":26316672893127,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.501,"height":1266,"width":1900,"src":"\/\/elliotrhodes.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/U288_front.jpg?v=1738696184"},"aspect_ratio":1.501,"height":1266,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/elliotrhodes.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/U288_front.jpg?v=1738696184","width":1900},{"alt":"packaging","id":26615164108999,"position":2,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":2000,"width":2000,"src":"\/\/elliotrhodes.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/buckles-packaging_e9e988dc-6478-4e1c-9040-2838933845d8.jpg?v=1738696184"},"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":2000,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/elliotrhodes.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/buckles-packaging_e9e988dc-6478-4e1c-9040-2838933845d8.jpg?v=1738696184","width":2000}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003cp\u003eAll the way back in 2009 we had a fortuitous meeting with sculptress Marcela Ganly whose body of work focuses predominantly on the animal world.
