Belt, Brass, Coins & Bells 40 inch Belly dance belt. The heavier weight of our solid brass dance accessories makes all the difference in the movement and sound when you dance. The brass bells are cast in the northern Indian State of Uttar Pradesh; which is well known for quality brass manufacturers. The remaining parts, such as chains, hooks, coins, and medallions are made in Mumbai (Bombay) on the west coast. There the belts are assembled for export. By removing the back-middle waist medallion you can adjust the size of the belt down by two inches.

Two bars are linked at one end by a metal ring. Four cords are included for straps for your fingers. To play, slip your thumb and fingers snugly under the straps.
