14th Century Clothing Accessories
This is my belt. The buckle was purchased from Master Mark de Gaukler, who does medieval jewelry reproductions and deals in medieval things.
This is my second belt. I cast the buckle in brass using a cuttlefish mold. The buckle has a forked spacer with plates soldered on. I also etched the wigglework plates of brass to decorate the belt.
This is my pouch and the things I carry in my pouch. My horn needle case and my coins of Edward III. The pouch is made of leather and bound down the edges with a tabby woven ribbon. It also has silk tassles.
This is my knife that I purchased, and the sheath I made for it. The sheath is of leather sewn with sinew and it has a fingerloop braid of silk to attach it to my belt. It has the same shape as the knife sheaths pictured in the Luttrell Psalter.
This is my rosary. It is made of clear amber-colored glass beads and fake ivory beads, on a five finger loop braid of silk threads.
