This Edwardian sterling silver belt and buckle originates from the Art Nouveau period, specifically hallmarked for Birmingham 1902 by makers Horton and Allday. The piece consists of interconnected panels formed with openwork filigree sections alternating with solid panels depicting botanical motifs, whiplash curves, and floral clusters. The central element comprises an interlocking two-part buckle decorated with matching stylized foliage. The metal exhibits a polished greyish-silver metallic tone with highlighted relief details and darkened recesses. The whole item measures 62.2 cm long by 5.1 cm wide at the buckle, weighing 216 grams. Today, this wearable antique serves as a collector's piece of vintage costume or jewellery, suitable for display in a cabinet or vitrine as an example of early twentieth-century silversmithing. It requires careful handling and preservation away from moisture to maintain the sterling silver surface. The flexible linked construction allows it to drape over a stand or mount for exhibition within a study or dressing room collection.
