Fleur 18th Century Shoe Buckles (Silver)

These buckles are gorgeous in person!

Traumatizing to install

I mean, they look okay I guess. But they don’t look great. I think the buckles would look better if a professional put them on. If you’re buying these, I’d suggest taking them to a shop to get a cobbler to do it. The problem is poking a hole through the BACK of the flap—it has to go through fabric and then leather. And then the leather just looks tacky from the front afterwards. Perhaps if AD included a hole punch with the buckles….dunno

Very nice!

The buckles are beautiful and sturdy, and they arrived in a nice little drawstring bag which would be great for reusing as somethig else.
