The importance of specific boundaries is often overlooked and understated, but we find freedom and joy in clearly stating our own needs and specifications.  Nothing wrong with taking care of one's self--and if everything is laid out in black and white, everyone may be aware.  We love the linear beauty of this 1930s celluloid buckle for its contrast and graphic gorgeousness, and strands of reconstructed and colored amber in black and ivory add a textural mix that is sophisticated and stylish.  (And such versatility! Wear the buckle at back to let the beads show, or at front or side to show off the stripes!) Measures 18" in length.
