3 New Buckles Added to the Etsy Store

I recently added 3 new buckles to the ETSY store
 this is the 1 1/2 inch Arrow head buckle in bronze.  This is a wider version of the original 1.25 arrow head buckle carved down from the mold a found spear head.


This is the sterling version of the 1 1/2 inch  Megalodon sharks tooth . I molded it from an actual fossil tooth found in the Tampa Bay area by a customer who dove for it in an area that was about to be built over with a condo. It was on its way to the natural history museum for their collection but he let me borrow it for a few days to make a mold of the front of it. It's a beauty. This one is also for 1.5 inch belts. I do a bronze and white bronze version of this but this is the first sterling one.



This is the white bronze version of the lab buckle for 1.25 belts.  I have done this design in bronze and sterling so this is first successful white bronze casting.  White bronze is harder to cast because of the pitting that occurs on the castings,  It's very difficult to get a perfect casting in white bronze in this design, but this one came pretty close
