More harness items.

Top row: metal strap with harness rivet attached (2nd one I’ve found) and a chunk of leather with iron rivets in it. Bottom row: buckle missing the tang, a brass harness rivet, a roller buckle with angled frame and a large harness ring. I’m going to post the rivet in another TNet forum with more info.

Hey BF, does the harness ring look like wrought iron?

I have it soaking in vinegar. I believe it is wrought iron. Should be able to tell once corrosion is under control. Will go to electrolysis tank eventually.
