Double Arabesque Buckle / Arabesque Chape

The buckle is after one in our collection and many published examples The chape is a pastiche, made to match.

In 2023 we added an attachment plate to the buckle. Like looping the strap over the center bar, this is an authentic method of attaching buckles, but it has a couple of advantages. It is quicker and easier to attach, and it lets you pein up the rivets against the back of the plate, rather than having to fidget with a little washer. More importantly, it lets you use the thicker leather that many of our customers prefer without skiving it down – and leaves more room in the opening of the buckle for that leather to pass through.

Fits a 3/4 inch or 19 mm wide strap.
