RAFAEL SANCHEZ Cinnabar Resin Braid Sash Belt, 1980's

About the Item

1980's Rafael Sanchez red braided belt with a statement making cinnabar resin medallion, enameled florets and glass beading. The belt has a distinctive Asian influence and is reminiscent of traditional Chinese regalia. The cinnabar medallion is backed by a cobalt blue enamel metal with a large bead on one end and a long braid on the opposite end. The dangling braided strands are accented by detailed cinnabar beading. The belt stays in place by threading the large bead through the open braid which creates tension when worn. A stunning piece that would be a wonderful accessory for a maximalist look or a focal point for a minimalist ensemble. Marked with label on the back side of the medallion and accompanied by a Rafael Sanchez dust bag for storage. CONDITION Good vintage condition with minor soiling to the braided belt. The dust bag also shows some discolorations. MEASUREMENTS The belt with medallion measures a total of 61" from end to end. The medallion measures 4" diameter. The belt can be worn at 28.5" circumference up to 36.5" circumference. For visual reference, the mannequin in the photographs is a size 4 and photograph 2 shows the belt as a swag and photograph 3 shows the belt worn tighter to the waist.
