militaria item Cornwall Rifle Volunteers officer's waist belt clasp
- British
This is the belt plate of the 1st or 2nd Administrative Battalion struck with the county arms surmounted by the Prince of Wales plumes between laurel sprays. It is a die-struck plate in white metal and dates from the earlier years of the unit. The later examples were the tongue and buckle variety.

militaria item Sukkur Police belt buckle from Sindh Province
- British Empire
This is an other ranks buckle for an Indian policeman in the last 50 odd years of the Raj. It would have been worn on the uniform tunic. Some research would show whether this was one of the paramilitary battalions in this frontier province, or regular local police.

militaria item Natal Royal Regiment Artillery waist buckle, ORs
- British Empire
This waist belt clasp would have been worn by the enlisted men of the NRRFA, which was raised in Natal in the early years of the 20th century. It would probably have gone on a white buff leather belt, possibly with sword slings, and would probably have been worn for parade only.

testimonials

Having received the beautiful medal that has been the subject of many recent phone calls, I am absolutely delighted with it. More importantly, the research you provided into the military backgrounds of all those involved made it all the more poignant. Thank you for your highly professional and friendly help and advice throughout the transaction.

I received the bayonet today. Very nice example. I will keep an eye on your site for possible future purchases.
