The first known belt material to be used by man was made from softened tree bark. From this prehistoric time, belts have developed and evolved in many different parts of the world. In fact, archeological finds suggest that our ancestors have been using or wearing decorative belts as early as the Bronze Age, between 3300 and 1200 BCE. During this time belts became necessary and were widely used for carrying objects particularly weapons and tools. Buckles are usually associated with belts, but there are actually endless uses for a buckle. Creative ways to fashionably incorporate buckles range from using as them as jewelry by stringing on a chain or cord, use them as a scarf slide, or attach as a decorative element to shoes, purses or bags. Sew them onto a dress or sweater for a custom touch. The more the better! No longer just a securing mechanism, buckles are a unique way to easily add a chic detail to most any accessory.
