✅ SOLVED A Belt Buckle

[EnvoyToTheMolePeople]

I found this (belt?) buckle with two P.O.D buttons from the late 1800s-early 1900s. This makes me think that the buckle is of a similar date, but I figured I would ask anyway. It's about 3in by 1.25 in. Also, is it actually a belt buckle, or something else?

Looks old, looks fancy, and is in great shape. Congrats! Gary

Would've said carbine sling but it's got all that fancy. Now I'm not so sure.

I'm thinking it's a Victorian period ladies sash buckle.
One of the teeth are missing.

Based on the responses, this looks to be from either a fancy carbine strap or an somewhat plain victorian women's sash. I think it's probably the sash, but I'm going to say that it is from a carbine.

Edit: There is an antique dealer about 2 blocks from where I found this, I could ask him.

Antiquarian nailed it. They were the custom back then. Nice buckle.

Even missing a tooth, she is still a thing of beauty ~
