Antique Anglo-Indian Silver Belt Buckle c.1900 A decorative late 19th to early 20th century Anglo-Indian silver belt buckle, cast in two interlocking parts with finely detailed repoussé and pierced work throughout. The design features a pair of opposing mounted warriors in stylised armour, each riding a galloping horse within a richly worked landscape of palm trees, birds, and floral motifs. Of unmarked silver or silvered white metal over a copper-based alloy, with traces of green oxidation to the lower edge and reverse, consistent with age. The clasp mechanism is intact and functional. To the reverse is a scratched or engraved name, Angela Darkin, suggesting this may have been a personalised accessory, perhaps for a nurse or lady in uniform during the late Victorian or Edwardian period. Likely of Indian or Burmese origin, produced during the British colonial period for domestic use or export. Width: 12 cm Height: 7.5 cm Weight: 93g Good decorative condition with some surface wear, tarnish and minor oxidation.
