Small square buckle with clear paste stones

Description

This delicate and charming small square buckle is adorned with clear paste stones arranged in a single row along all four sides. The stones are hand-set in a silver-tone metal frame with a scalloped inner edge, adding a subtle decorative flourish. The back reveals a simple yet sturdy prong mechanism for fastening, and the bar is marked with “UNDRPAT,” indicating it may be a patented design from the early 1900s. Measuring approximately 2.5 cm by 2.5 cm, this buckle was likely used for fine accessories such as belts, sashes, or even shoes, and it reflects the refined craftsmanship typical of Edwardian or early Art Deco costume fittings. Its small scale and sparkling detail would have added a subtle touch of elegance to any garment.
