You're not seeing double, I have two of these fabulous buckles listed separetely so please view my storefront for the other listing. Just think, you could have two little dachshund cutie pies! This buckle exudes cuteness with those sweet brown eyes set against a glistening golden hue. All that is needed is your favorite belt so you can wrap this little cutie around your waist. But who is Princess Mimi di Niscemi, you ask? Good question. I found a lovely biography on the iconic designer which I’ll share with you. From the Buy My Gold website, “Mimi is an internationally known designer of women’s costume jewelry and is also often referred to as, Princess Mimi di Niscemi. She studied at the Philadelphia Museum School of Industrial Arts and simultaneously worked part-time for a jewelry manufacturer who produced Schiaparelli jewelry. Her skills led to work with Dutch silversmith Rudolph Broom at the Wichita Art Association. She won a scholarship to the School of Applied Arts in Paris. In the 1950s, Mimi became a partner with Arnold Scaasi and produced pieces marked, ‘Jewels by Scaasi.’ In 1959 she joined Robert DeMario, then moved to the New York based bead house, ‘Brania’ where she made jewels marked “Brania/Mimi di N.” She opened her own jewelry firm in 1960 in New York City and appears to have retired in 1995 and no longer designs jewelry. Her original pieces are marked Mimi di N. with a more block-style Mimi di N mark. Best known for her inspired, unusual belt buckles and strips, her jewelry is dramatic, bold and elaborate often in byzantine style using gold and silver plating, enamel, rhinestones, glass cabochons, and simulated pearls.
