The reverse side is made of sacking, one end reinforced by a blue checked cotton fabric. The front is made of a chocolate velvet, and front and back are united by a black plastic (to imitate leather) edging. The decor is a truly sumptuous multi coloured flower motif , done in thousands of plastic beads, by hand ! One end of the belt is fixed with two buckles, and the other end had two leather straps -only one left (something repaired easily by a cobbler). The leather straps are hidden by two velvet, beaded straps. Place a Bid!
