    A satin or velvet band or ribbon maybe? There are ones with sterling clasps nowadays.

    The ladies of Normandy were closet Dutch.:shifty: But where lace caps overhere mostly went to the sides, the Normandy caps went up.

    Although the ladies of Huizen (between Amsterdam and Utrecht) thought both up and sideways was a good idea;):

    These are two different lace caps btw.

    That bunch of rusted cut steel "crossed" my path...

    Snatched it in a lot with a part of silver buckle and a paste bow brooch lacking a dangle, all totally black from oxydation:wideyed:

    The cross was treated with brass wire brush, then fiberglass and finally polished with 4 faces nail gel file. Shiny again:)

    Big one: 7cmx4cm or roughly 3"x1.5"

    The half buckle is very nice as a pendant on the Echo en Mexico chain I just got:)

    Stunning cross, and great job on cleaning them.
    Yes, it works.:) Looks like a cloak buckle.

    The cut steel cross..yowza. The belt buckle looks good as a pendant, but I think the chain likes your bird skull better.

    :hilarious::hilarious: the creature has been identified as a skink lizard. I love to think it is a baby dragon!:troll:
    The chain is a very nice versatile piece, which can complement several of my heavy pendants:happy:
    Thank you for your appreciation on the polishing work:kiss:

    Well done, Kyra! Very nice finds. I am a bit (just a little bit :)) envious about the cut steel cross. Impressive!
