Belt hook

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Metal belt hook with a tapered rectangular body and a curved hook at the top. The body features a flat base and straight sides that taper to a narrower width at the top. The hook is thick and rounded. The entire piece is adorned with intricate designs and patterns, including swirling motifs and oval shapes. The designs are rendered in silver and gold tones, and some areas have a textured or raised appearance. Small, round turquoise stones are set into the piece, adding a pop of color to the overall design. The background of the image features a gradient that transitions from dark gray or black at the top to light gray at the bottom.
