A brass belt features a woven metal strap forming a horizontal loop. A circular medallion connects the ends, showcasing a rounded turquoise stone framed by a textured rope-like pattern and an outer ring of small, pointed petals. A large ring projects from the top of the medallion. The muted, golden metal emphasizes the intricate braid of the strap, creating a formal ornament with a central, sunburst-inspired focal point.
