Vintage Sandcast & Inlay Buckle

An unusual combination of techniques are employed in this vintage buckle. It was sandcast, then stamped and inlayed to create a unique piece. The buckle is inlayed with mother of pearl, turquoise and jet. It is not signed. The piece has a vintage patina that has not been taken off. The buckle measures 3 1/8 by 2 inches and has a 1 1/2 inch bale.
