Antique Tibetan belt hook made from copper with a red coral (or glass coral) inlay. These hooks were traditionally attached to a leather belt or strap and worn as part of Tibetan nomadic dress. They served both decorative and functional purposes, sometimes used to hang small items or buckets while working.
The design features a stylized protective face motif and traditional Himalayan decorative patterns. Pieces like this were common in Tibetan tribal jewelry and costume ornaments.
A beautiful collectible piece of Himalayan ethnographic metalwork.
