Nice set, Overhoff is the buckle maker, the felt is typical in parade belts
The felt helped to protect the uniform. It was an extra cost like higher grade leather or a patent leather finish. A nice set.
As others write. The first buckle model LW from OLC - Overhoff & Cie, Lüdenscheid with parade belt.
Friends, thanks for your comments.
Belt leather is elastic, good leather.

You are talking about a high price. This is understandable, I read that the belts were of the best quality. But are these belts a private purchase?
Yes I mean the belt would cost more if it is backed or if it is a better thicker grade of leather. Just like a dress bayonet. A etched blade or a stag Handel were a extra cost.
