In gold brocade, 1950s version featuring wave blue cloth liner. Massive gold-plated brass buckle has the Soviet state emblem of 1946-1956 (showing 16 republics in the USSR). One Extra Large size fits all (adjusting the foldover on the back will enable it to fit up to about a 45" waist). The hanger clips and buckles are in heavy brass with gold plating, as solid in their construction as the main buckle.

In outstanding, excellent condition. The bullion embroidery has only light age patina which adds character, no scuffs or significant wear. The gold plating on the clips and buckles is extremely well preserved and bright. The lining is very clean, with minimal fading only. This is a truly superb example!
