There are buckles that accessorise a belt, and then there are buckles that are the reason for the belt's existence. This is firmly the second kind. The clay mock ostrich strap — with its clouded, organic finish and those darker quill dots shifting across the surface — provides the perfect canvas. Warm, textural, unhurried. But it's the buckle that stops you in your tracks. A large oval form set entirely with hand-placed Czech glass cabochon stones in turquoise, moonstone and soft blue, interspersed with Swarovski crystals that catch the light between the larger stones like tiny points of brilliance. No two stones are the same size, and that's entirely the point — the organic, almost botanical arrangement of the cabochons gives the buckle a quality that feels gathered rather than manufactured. Like something washed up on a shoreline and set in silver. The open centre is a decision I'm particularly pleased with. Rather than filling the frame completely, the stones form a wreath around the leather beneath — the clay ostrich becoming part of the composition, visible through the heart of the buckle. It breathes. It's generous. And it means the belt and buckle exist as one object rather than two things competing for attention. Turquoise on clay is one of those combinations that just feels like summer — light, airy, and completely effortless. The cool blue-green of the stones against the warm, faded ground of the leather creates a contrast that is striking without being harsh. Handcrafted in our small Spanish atelier, where belts are still made one at a time by people who care deeply about getting it right. How to wear it: This is a women's belt made for summer dressing — white linen, cream cotton, soft denim. Let the buckle do all the talking and keep everything else simple. A piece that transforms an outfit the moment you put it on.
