184 Vintage Banjara Tribal Groom's Belt

Gorgeous Belt of the Banjara Group used by a groom during the wedding ceremony.

Probably also a coin belt used in an era when coins were the primary form of currency.

Very good example of the work of the Banjaras with several well made patterns

Pleasing color combinations

Condition is not perfect - many imperfections.

Circa 1960-1970s

This item has spent a lifetime being used for the purpose of its creation with the original artist/user. Signs of this life lived heartily may be present on the piece in the form of stains, thread loss, loose threads, holes, tears, color run and other imperfections. Therefore the condition must be assumed to be “not” perfect. More photos of such imperfections will be provided on request.
