Sruli Recht installs another moment in states of decay -

The first Buckless Belt is a completely Icelandic product, from the skin to the hand-made vertical-feed boxes, in colours flesh, bone, ash and rust and in widths of 3, 4 and 5 centimetres.

Utilising a Unique Feed-Teeth method of fastening, and cut using a needle fine jet of water, this is Metal Detector Invisible.

~Elt is an exploration in removing the function from the function. When the clasp or buckle is removed from the belt itself, it loses its place, and becomes a strip of hard skin, not even long enough to knot. In this result the skin is incised to give the same ability as clasped and interlocked fingers.

In designing belts the challenge came that there must be a way to do away with the buckle, and create a symmetric flat strong tie, without any additions.
Looking at the woven fingers of my locked hand pent in thought, the idea was found.
Similarly, watching the rocks erode on a waterfall, the power of the waters persistence was remarkable.  In researching perfect cut methods of lazer or die, the water cut method explores new and natural applications.

~Elt aims to step backward away from the modern decorative whilst utilising the modern rococo in a robo-coco application.  

The future is the machined.
