We will make these belts in natural dyed black (shown) or oiled, your choice. They are hand sewn with a single row of stitching across the buckle (shown) or two rows down the sides, again your choice. The 'gutter back' frame buckle included on these belts were cast by Scott and Fenny from Richmond Depot (the buckles can also be purchased separately here.) There are good examples of these belts pictured in Shannon Pritchard's book "Collecting The Confederacy."
