Add a striking medieval touch to your leatherwork with these Maltese Cross Studs, crafted from solid brass as a set of 5. Whether you’re restoring historical gear or creating a new leather project, these decorative mounts bring timeless look to every piece.

The iconic Maltese Cross has been associated with the medieval military orders, the Knights Hospitaller, and later became closely linked with the Knights of Malta. Similar cross designs were also widely used throughout the Crusader period, making these studs an excellent choice for medieval and Templar-inspired projects.

Solid Brass That Improves With Age

Each of these Maltese Cross Brass Mounts is made from solid brass, valued for its strength, durability, and resistance to rust.

Brass naturally resists corrosion and requires very little maintenance. Over time, it gradually develops a rich natural patina, giving every mount an aged appearance and authentic old-world charm.

Perfect for Leathercraft & Medieval Accessories

These Templar Cross Studs instantly enhance the look of belts, bags, pouches, sword frogs, armor, bracers, straps, journals, and countless other leather projects.

Easy Tang Installation

Each mount features a sturdy brass tang on the backfor secure attachment.

Installation

1. Mark the desired position on your leather.
2. Punch a hole matching the diameter of the brass tang.
3. Push the tang through the leather.
4. Place a brass washer over the protruding tang on the back.
5. Using a small ball-peen hammer, gently peen the end of the tang over the washer until it forms a secure rivet head.

Care Instructions

• Wipe occasionally with a soft cloth.
• Allow the brass to develop a natural patina for a traditional aged appearance, or polish if you prefer a brighter finish.
