I have some wonderful accessories to pass on today, including two pairs of Albert Thurston suspenders, a Brooks Brothers sterling silver slide buckle and snakeskin belt strap, and a belt in lizard!

As always, I offer FREE SHIPPING ON EVERYTHING in the USA; International inquiries are welcome, with shipping at cost.

Also as always, ALL OFFERS ARE VERY WELCOME!

Please PM with interest and offers!

1) Brooks Brothers Engine Turned Silver Buckle.

The engine-turned silver buckle is an Ivy classic; the only debate over it is whether you should buy yours from Tiffany's or Brooks Brothers. And if choose Brooks Brothers, here's a buckle for you! This is a classic engine-turned sterling silver buckle with a cartouche for engraving; here, this has been used to engrave "BAB". This buckle shows minor signs of wear commensurate with use. It's stamped "Brooks Brothers" and "Sterling" on the reverse. It measures 1 7/8" by 1 1/4", and is in Very Good condition. Asking just $39, or offer, shipped in the USA.





2) Brooks Brothers snakeskin belt strap. Lined with cowhide for durability, this is the perfect strap for the engine turned slide buckle, above. This is Made in the USA, and is marked size 36; it measures 39 1/4" long by 1" wide. It has some minor rubbing on both the front and the underside, where it would encounter the buckle. This is in Very Good condition, and is a bargain at just $29, or offer.



3) GORGEOUS W. Kleinberg lizard belt. Kleinberg make superb, classic belts from exotic skins; these are sold in their flagship store in Atlanta, or at stores such as Bloomingdale's. This is in excellent condition, and would retail for $175. It measures 37" by 1 1/8". Made in the USA. Absolutely beautiful! Asking just $45, or offer.






4) ALBERT THURSTON of London braces/suspenders.


Albert Thurston have been selling braces (suspenders, in American!) since their founding in 1820; at the Great Exhibition in London in 1851 they received an Honourable Mention for the quality of their products--an accolade that they still deserve today!

Both pairs of braces are in excellent condition; both were Made in England.

Asking just $18 each pair, or $30 for both, shipped in the USA!



Suspenders A: Black with natural branch motif.



Suspenders B: Pale yellow with blue dots.
