Some belts have tassels make of cloves. Cloves will keep insects away and it hides the smell of the camel (or donkey or horse) when the nomads are riding it/sitting on it.

The belts were originally used as a decorative halter for camels, donkeys or horses and are characteristic for nomadic tribes in and around Afghanistan.

Most of the belt are about 50 to 70 years old and they show signs of their previous life.

As the belts are in their authentic condition, some preparations are needed before you can wear them.

Besides wearing these items as belts, they also make an eye-catching decorative object!
