Book Documentation

This distinctive belt design is pictured on page 248 of Juliana Jewelry – The Last Generation by Paula Knutson and Karla Wacker. The caption identifies the design as a “Big Colorful Lucite Stones Stretch Snake Belt.” The photograph in the book documents the same design, not necessarily this particular example. Although the book caption says Lucite, the stones in this belt are rhinestones.
