Did the Romans use for instance stamps in leather or burn in decorations in their belts and balteus.

Stamps or cutting/engraving/scratching/scoring. burning would only damage leather and there is no need...

forgot to mention decorative stitching and appliqué of various sorts

"And the four bare walls stand on the seashore. a wreck a skeleton a monument of that instability and vicissitude to which all things human are subject. Not a dwelling within sight, and the farm labourer, and curious traveller, are the only persons that ever visit the scene where once so many thousands were congregated." T.Lewin 1867
