An Edwardian sterling silver and guilloche enamel belt buckle bears clear hallmarks for Birmingham 1909 along with the makers mark for Levi and Salaman. The rounded triangular or diamond shape piece incorporates plain smooth silver alongside a lime green and white double guilloche enamel banded front. The metal frame supports interior vertical support bars and a hinged prong mechanism designed to operate separately. The surfaces show concentric borders and detailed engine turning across the enamel sections. The entire object measures 8 cm high by 7 cm wide and 1.5 cm deep. Such a decorative item suits collectors of early twentieth century personal accessories and functions as a traditional garment fastening or display piece within a home setting.

FAQs

Guilloche enamel involves engraving precise geometric patterns into metal before applying translucent coloured enamel over the surface. Popular during the Edwardian era from 1901 to 1910, this technique creates light-reflecting designs on functional items like buckles, lockets, and vanity sets.

Edwardian buckles were primarily crafted using sterling silver, hallmarked base metals, and vitreous enamel. Craftspeople etched intricate patterns into the silver structure using engine turning lathes before firing glass powder enamel over the metal.

Authentic British pieces bear official assay office hallmarks, such as the anchor for Birmingham, alongside a date letter and silver purity mark like the lion passant. Authentic guilloche enamel exhibits precise, machine-engraved underlying patterns beneath a smooth, translucent glass layer.

While originally designed for belts or sashes, antique silver buckles can be incorporated into custom jewellery mountings, worn with contemporary textile belts, or mounted inside shadow-box frames as decorative historical artefacts.

Clean silver areas gently with a soft microfibre cloth designed for polishing silver, taking care to avoid abrasive compounds that can scratch glass enamel. Keep the piece dry and store it away from moisture to prevent tarnish and oxidisation.
