<p>[QUOTE="Barbara W. Preston, post: 3059373, member: 13943"]That piece is from what is known as a nurses belt. I do not know about the Edwardian part, but I do know it is called a nurses belt. Each piece is hooked to the next piece with 2 "O" rings. The part you have is one of the pieces of the buckle that has lost the flat bar on the back for the other half of the buckle. I thought it was sterling, but I have learned that it is silver plate. I used to wear it a lot, but now this 80 yo is too big around the belt line area to wear it. Need to add about 6 more pieces! Gus is right! and so is daveydempsey.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
