More About Our Vintage Kuchi Jeweled Pendant Belt #6

We’ve been a trusted source for these traditional belts since 2001! Coming from the nomadic Pashtun tribes of Afghanistan, these tribal belts are a stunning representation of the traditional design and styling of the region. Loved by professional belly dancers, ethnic jewelry collectors and SCA enthusiasts, these are the real deal!

Assembled on a durable dark fabric base for comfort and ease of wear.  In addition to being comfortable, this belt is also a statement piece! It features the timeless characteristics and distinct look of traditional Kuchi tribal work; often a mix of elements including hand-cut colored glass, rhinestones, coins, belled ball drops and unique pendant designs. Rich antique silver and pale gold tones in the metal work allow it to work with other styles of jewelry and accessories easily.

This more rare vintage belt features antique silver and pale gold tones in the metal work. Larger pendant at the center is the focal piece. Classic coin and Kuchi pendants complete this beautiful belt. Belled falls add a melodic tone. The center pendant measures 5″ tall from top to bottom of bell falls. The coin pendants with bells measure about 3″ tall. Red bead accents.

You can add length to these belts? It’s true! Tie the belt around the hips as you normally would. Use any of our complimentary traditional Kuchi necklaces to fill the gap by tying or pinning it in place. Check out Jennifer’s article on various ways for adding length to your dance belt!

The unique look of these pieces have made them long sought after pieces not only as belts, but, also paired with our Kuchi necklaces as extra long torso covering layered necklace look! Check out this great image by Sequoia Emmanuelle of Zoe Jakes modeling this decadent layered look.
