Brass Rivet Washers – Laurel Wreath Rosettes for Leathercraft & Armor, Set of 5

Solid Brass

These Brass Rivet Washers are made from solid brass for a sturdy and durable construction. Each piece has an antique finish that gives the brass an aged look well suited to historical leatherwork, armor and costume projects.

Embossed Laurel Wreath Design

Each washer has a raised laurel wreath pattern. Laurel wreaths were used as symbols of victory, honour and achievement in ancient Greek and Roman traditions.

The embossed design makes these Brass Rosette Washers suitable for projects where the visible hardware is supposed to look like a decoration.

Functional Rivet Backing

These pieces can be used as Leather Rivet Washers when attaching metal fittings or other components to thick leather. The washer provides a broader surface behind the rivet, helping distribute pressure and reducing the chance of the rivet pulling directly through the leather.

Once the rivet passes through the material and washer, its end can be carefully peened for a secure attachment.

Historical Leathercraft & Armor Projects

These Decorative Brass Washers are useful for leather belts, straps, armor fittings, shields, costume accessories and other DIY historical projects.

How to Use

1. Make a hole in the leather.
2. Pass a rivet through it.
3. Position the brass washer over the rivet.
4. Carefully peen the end of the rivet to secure the washer and fitting in place.
