Liberty & Co. Arts and Crafts Silver & Enamel Heart Buckle by William Hair Haseler, 1908

A buckle that captures the essence of the Arts and Crafts movement, this exquisite piece was crafted by William Hair Haseler for Liberty & Co., known for championing the era's most celebrated artisans. Imagine this buckle gracing the attire of a well-dressed Edwardian, a testament to a time when every detail in dress was chosen with care and intention. Its organic forms and hammered silver surface draw the eye, leading to two iridescent heart-shaped enamels that evoke the deep, shifting hues of an opal sea. Presented in its original Liberty & Co. box, it is a rare and beautiful relic of early 20th-century design.

Crafted in sterling silver and bearing Birmingham hallmarks for the year 1908, this buckle measures 65.5 mm across and 56 mm from top to bottom, with a substantial weight of 26.6 grams. The hallmark includes Haseler’s maker’s mark, “WHH,” confirming his hand in its creation. Each heart is carefully enameled in rich, shifting shades of green and blue, emblematic of the Arts and Crafts movement’s reverence for nature and artisanal techniques.

To wear or display this piece is to connect with Liberty’s vision of beauty and craftsmanship—a piece as captivating today as it was over a century ago.
