This is one model of the two buckles.Wax work was in many stages. Due to the complexity of the elements and their small size.All wax parts are produced separately and assembled in metal when they are ready on the way that has been made in antiquity.
The angle from which the buckle was photographed in the museum gives a different perspective of actually how it should look, so I've used other sources of scientific publications to reproduce correct shape of the object. Unfortunately, some of the photos are posted so long ago are very poor as a quality .Here the buckle can be seen from different perspective.
One of the belt buckles model in wax and metal work.
This second buckle which I created has a complex relief and is different as an idea of the ancient artist from the first one . Of course all of this refracted through my creative vision on the issue.

There is uncertainty as to whether the 2 nd wider buckle also had disks (similar to the smaller one) on both sides of the periphery and 2 discs inside the buckle. Have they been lost irretrievably during their use in antiquity? Or this is the result of dropping off the buckle due to the millennium stay in the aggressive soil!? This will remain a secret for us at this stage.
