    Description

    I got these items from an estate sale in Carlsbad, CA recently from a retired FBI/CIA agent who was stationed around the World. They are wonderful old bead work from Belarus, I couldn't let them fade away. There is one belt with sash edges measuring 28" of beads and then the additional tying sash work making the entire length 40" x 2 1/8", the cuffs are 3", 2" and 1 1/4". I have them wrapped in Smithsonian acid free tissue. Wonderful for a collector. The cuffs are dry and rather fixed but wearable but the belt is still usable although I would just keep it in a collection.
