'old copper and rust' fiber belt with vintage buckle
This belt features a large vintage belt buckle made out of copper, with a beautiful patina throughout. The cool turquoise of the buckle is a great match to the complimentary rust and greenish tones of the hand-painted, hand-textured fiber belt, with raw edging, made by the artist with different signature techniques. The back has a similar texture with a unique raised look. The belt is flexible and can be worn on the hips or on the waist and will go through most belt loops. The end portion of the belt is made out of braided leather that is used for closure (by using any openings in the braids). PLEASE NOTE: all belts are made with a lot of extra in case it is needed and unless requested, will be set to an average medium size for use, so please refer to the measurements and let us know if any adjustments are needed.

Very brief cold water hand wash, a few drops of mild detergent, always separately, spin in washer and dry on medium, or air dry and finish in dryer to soften. Also can be dry cleaned by mild methods, or dry cleaned in dryer at home with a store-bought kit. Do not use stain removers, spot treaters or bleach pens. Contact us for any advice, if needed.
All garments arrive to you freshly cleaned, unlike regular store-bought items, and are ready to wear.
Dry-cleaning is ok on most items but only if gentle methods are used and the cleaners are familiar with cleaning hand-painted delicate fabrics.
To freshen up any item that doesn’t need deep cleaning simply mist it with a water spray and put in the dryer on medium heat for about 15 min.
All garments can be hand washed. Wash each item separately, cold water only, minimal amount of detergent, and as briefly as possible, no soaking. The wash can be followed by a spin in the washer and dried on medium heat until dry. Knits should be hung-dried and when dry, finished in the dryer for a few minutes to soften.
Hand-pressing may be necessary after the wash and dry to straighten out the seams and edges which tend to pucker or curl on natural fabrics.
Some hand-dyed items may leak a bit of color during the washing, that is normal and will not affect the item. Using liquid softener during the wash will minimize any color leaking.
For more tips and details please refer to the cleaning instructions card included with your package.
