Dimensions: Size ca. 5.2 x 10.6 cm (the rounded rectangular plaques), ca. 5.2 x 6.3 cm (the rectangular plaques)

Belt ornaments were a highly important part of attire in ancient China as it revealed the person’s rank and status. Under Tang dynasty sumptuary laws and dress regulations, the number of belt plaques related directly to the rank of the wearer. In the Liao dynasty, clothing and accessories related very closely stylistically to those in the Tang dynasty because the same laws and regulations were adopted, and the tradition of high-ranking figures wearing elaborate belt ornaments continued.

Literature comparison:
Compare a group of seven related earlier gilt-bronze belt plaques with animal design, dated to the Sui dynasty, in the Asian Art Museum of San Francisco, object number B68B10a-g. Compare a group of five related gilt-bronze belt plaques with similar deer, dated to the Tang dynasty, 8th century, in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, object number 19.123a–e.
