Belt Buckles by Kiel Mead
-
This tie clip is made of cast string and serves as a rather homespun antidote to all those mad men running around. -
Rather a nice buckle for an urban woodsman. Match those Bean boots to your belt buckle. It's compulsory at the Park Slope Food Co-op. -
The Twig belt and buckle is one where Mead sought to re-purpose an everyday object as a bit of fashion ephemera. -
Pull! -
This might be my favorite of the circular belt buckles. My isn't that craft yar! -
Another nautical nod, this gaff is no gaffe. -
One of the more understated of the series, I'm quite fond of the rough ropey texture against the leather. -
Here are a pair of runners Mead fashioned from a trophy medallion. -
Fancy a foxtrot? Relish a rumba? Keep dancing with this ballroom-inspired buckle. -
This cast string confection is the other tie clip in Mead's collection, though it also doubles as a money clip.
