Men's vintage belt Request black leather, original retro eyelet buckle

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

Men's belt from the brand Request, in a distinctive retro style, presented here coiled against a wooden bookcase backdrop. The central element of this piece is its imposing buckle with a raised eye motif, in a dark tone matching the strap. This sculpted motif immediately catches the eye and gives the piece an original and daring character, typical of vintage accessories with a strong personality.

The visible strap has a smooth, slightly patinated appearance, with a matte finish evoking leather, in line with the keywords. The dominant shade is a deep black, enhanced by the metallic sheen of the pin buckle, which offers an elegant visual contrast. The stitching on the edge of the strap is not apparent in this view, reinforcing the clean aesthetic of the whole.

The rectangular silver buckle, featuring a classic pin, is securely attached to the belt by a visible rivet. The metal has a smooth and shiny appearance, without additional ornamentation, which further highlights the raised eye motif on the central part. No logo, inscription or brand is visible on the buckle or strap on this side.

The overall design, with its expressive central motif and choice of materials evoking authenticity, fits perfectly into the retro and vintage trend, while remaining sufficiently understated to adapt to various men's clothing styles. This type of accessory is for those who are looking for a strong piece, both utilitarian and decorative, with a unique look.

The belt is coiled, which does not allow the entire strap or the end to be seen, but the visible side does not show any major apparent defects. The ensemble evokes the productions of the 80s-90s, a period during which symbolic motifs and accessories with strong visual identity were particularly in vogue.

Condition

Second-hand item, sold as is. Some signs of wear and patina marks are visible on the buckle and strap, consistent with a vintage accessory. No apparent structural defects on the visible side.

Did you know? The eye-motif buckle is a nod (no pun intended) to the symbolic iconography very present in 80s and 90s fashion, where protective or mysterious motifs were commonly used to assert a strong and unique identity.
