Following is a small sample of the many configurations of Santa theme Bells that we can make for you. All our bell sets are custom made to order so that you can order as many or as few bells as you wish and arrange them any way you can think of!

The ideas for most of these bells came from Santa customers for use in their Santa presentations.


ULTIMATE SANTA BELT



Here it is, absolutely the best Santa Belt made! This belt features premium full top grain English Bridle Leather in heavy 20 oz weight. (Belt is over 5/16 inch thick in the center) This sturdy belt is made the same way as fine dress belts, just scaled up for Santa. It is actually two pieces of 10 oz top grain English Bridle Leather put together and stitched with a double row of heavy Nylon harness thread so you have smooth leather both inside the belt and out. The edges are carefully skived, thinned, to give a pleasing look and comfortable feel to this heavy duty belt. The double thickness and double stitching prevents the unsightly "roll" of the top or bottom edges of the belt so this belt will stand up to years of professional use.

The 3 inch wide belt shown above sports a custom gold plated buckle provided by our customer. We do not make or provide belt buckles at this time but are happy to make a belt to fit your favorite buckle.

All belts are custom made to your specifications and are available in any width or length.



If you are looking for a belt buckle like the one shown above they are available from Santa Richard at www.santabelts.com.

CELTIC OR OLD WORLD SANTA BELT



This unusual belt was buit for a non traditional Kilted Old World Santa.
This unique 4" wide two piece ranger style belt was patterened after Celtic Kilt Belts. Both body pieces are doubled and stitched Black Bridle Leather. The front plate fits, Ranger Style into stitched keepers integrated into the main body piece. The double buckle billets are all secured to the main pieces with solid Brass Post & Burr hand set rivets. The four large Solid Brass Cart buckles provide ample adjustment. Sporan hangers were made using traditional "Mystery" braid techniques. There were also two equipment loops with snaps that attach to the brass footman loops on the belt with bullet snaps. The short belts are detachable and secured with Sam Brown Studs for maximum versitility.
One of the most unique features of this belt is the Red Italian Calf Inlaid "SANTA" in the middle of the back pannel. .

This is an excellent example of what we are capable of when our customers "turn us loose" on a special project.
