Earlier this year I found several brass harness rivets that had either 8-petal flower designs or 5-pointed stars on the rivet heads. This seemed to be unusual according to several members. Today I found this chunk with 4 rivets; one flower design and 3 stars. Hopefully they show well when zoomed. I wonder if they were made this way or if the design was transferred/stamped into the head when the rivet was seated and crushed. The design could have been relieved into the anvil surface. If that’s the case, I’m not sure why one strap would have 2 designs. Any info appreciated. Thank you for looking.
