This belt is the Bee’s Knees! It’s just the thing to let fly at your drop waist while you Charleston the night away…
Swanky Art Deco belt of marbled green celluloid links that alternates pressed metal rectangles with a scrolling floral Art Nouveau motif. Round ball bearing clasp exemplifies the industrial machine age. Further proof that one era doesn’t come to a screeching halt as soon as the next one arrives. They often gently overlap one another. This belt can be worn higher up on a larger waist or lower on a more moderate hip, as it was originally intended. Links can easily be removed to adjust length.
