New Coin Belt DesignsI'm constantly working on new designs for my coin belts!
I've been creating many exciting new one-piece belts with more elaborate designs, many with the popular double row of smaller coins for the top "belt" section.
Eowyn
wears a spectacular ankle length coin belt
created with silver tone, heavy, ball chain fringe.
Similar "MAX" length ball chain belts are $300.
Shorter style, and lighterweight ball chain belts are
available from $160, in gold toneor silver tone chain.
(Her "Liquid Metal Designs"bra cover and
mini-shirt must be special-ordered.)
Kashmir
wears a fringe-y style "charm" belt,
embellished with pewter snake charms.
Matching "charm"
bra covers are available, as well.
Similar coin belts are $160 to $225,
bra covers $85-$110.
Holly's spectacular bright silvertone one-piece
coin belt has a double top row of small coins.
Similar styles are priced at $165-$200.
My recent acquistion of a large quantity of (silver-colored) Middle Eastern coins has inspired some fabulous new designs.
These coins have an attached loop on the top, which require two jump rings to hang straight. Therefore, they hang longer on the chain than coins that have been drilled.This gives the coin belt a lot of movement and "jingle".
Jana's coin belt, of antique Middle Eastern and
Hindu coins is made in two sections for maximum
adjustability (front and back views). Similar style
coin belts run $225-$280.
I've created many new coin belts with all Middle Eastern coins in varied sizes, paired with international coins, "Kuchi" ornaments, and long chain "fringes", reminiscent of Tunisian-style dance belts.
Eva's "small"
style one-piece coin belt uses
Middle Eastern coins interspersed with colorful
Afghani pendants (front and back views).
Similar coin belts are priced at $145-$165.
I've also found a new source for antique Chinese coins which have inspired some exciting new coin belts.
Eowyn's
two-piece coin belt is made
with beautiful dark brass Chinese coins
(front and back views).
Similar coin belts are priced at $210-$240.
On this page, are depicted a sampling of new designs, with my customers modeling their coin belts at recent festivals.
Doretta
wears a matching coin headpiece with
her fabulous antique silvertone coin belt
(front and back views). Headpieces range
from $25 to $40.

Sharon's ensemble (bra Cover, coin belt,
headpiece) is a mixture of silver and copper
coins. Belt consists of dense coin strips, no
chain, to form a fringe-y chevron pattern.
Similar style coin belt would run $250 -$275.
