A pair of cast white metal belt buckles featuring alternative fashion motifs with a pewter-tone finish. The first buckle, dated 2003, depicts a stylized humanoid robot of blocky construction. The figure features articulated-style limbs, a C-shaped hand, and a large rectangular head with inset red enamel eyes and a black enamelled horizontal bar representing the mouth. The torso is detailed with raised geometric vents and dials. The reverse is finished with a pebbled texture and bears a raised rectangular cartouche reading © 2003 Mobtown. The second buckle, dated 2005, presents an asymmetrical steampunk design featuring a skull partially encased in mechanical hardware. The central skull element is finished with off-white enamel, set against a complex assembly of buckled straps, gears, and a ribbed section resembling a spine. The reverse features a heavy pitted texture and a rectangular cartouche marked © 2005 Mobtown. Both items are fitted with standard metal loops and single prongs for belt attachment.
