Medieval Brass Belt Studs – Set of 5 Renaissance Cochos

Add authentic medieval detail to your leather projects with this set of 5 Brass Belt Studs, also known as cochos. Each stud is made from solid brass and has sturdy pins that allow you to rivet them securely onto belts, pouches, straps, or armor fittings.

These studs are compact as well as eye-catching, offering both strength and decorative appeal. Their natural brass finish lends a timeless, historical character, making them ideal for reenactment kits, LARP gear, or custom leathercraft.

Measurements: Approximate

• Overall height : 2 cm (0.8 in)

• Overall length : 3 cm (1 in)

• Pin width : 3 mm

• Pin length : 1 cm (0.4 in)

Directions for Use

• Mark the spot on your leather item where you’d like to place the mount.
• Punch a small hole in the leather using a leather punch or awl (just wide enough for the pin)
• Push the pin through the hole from the front side so the decorative mount sits properly.
• Slide the included washer over the pin at the back
• Bend or hammer the pin flat so it locks the washer and secures the mount in place.

Care Instructions

• Brass is softer than steel therefore avoid striking too hard while riveting.

• Clean gently with a soft cloth to maintain finish.

• Store in a dry place, natural patina will develop over time.

Note

As these Brass Belt Studs are hand-crafted from solid brass, slight variations in shape and finish may occur.
