Large Belt for the Court Robe

The large belt was put around the wearer's waist over the upper garment of a court robe or a ritual robe. The large belt consists of three parts: yo 繚 that runs around the waist, shin 紳 that hangs down in the shape of ‘ㄇ’, and a strap at each end. The belt in the picture is made of white double-layered scaled silk 純鱗 with black hemlines. The belt has three knotted buttons in red that fix the belt on the waist of the jacket.
