Incredibly it is now more than 8 years ago that 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 and Silver Plated buckles, each one limited edition signed and numbered. This horse design with the two horses frolicking or nuzzling expresses such abandon as well as the freedom and innocence we so admire in the animal kingdom - it of course also has the most wonderful 3 dimensional feel as if the horses were right there in front of you straining to escape the restraint of the buckle surface. The bronze buckle with its natural finish gives a warm, antique feel and its oval shape makes for a sleek low profile buckle that will follow the line of your belt. It makes for a statement buckle (especially if you are a horse lover!) that will always draw admiring looks and truly looks like a work of art. This buckle is numbered 20/100 and we have just the one piece so the photos you see here are of the exact buckle you will receive.
How it's made |
Buckle making remains a remarkably traditional skill with most of our designs initially crafted by hand in wax before being melted away to create a mould from which we can cast your buckle. Once cast the buckle is then sent away for the galvanic process which gives it its colour and then any additional details such as enamel or crystals are applied by hand. Whether being made in Italy, France, Mexico, USA or the UK the techniques used remain the same. |
