I wonder if anyone has any ideas about this buckle?

The buckle is definitely period and definitely not a post 1945 fantasy item, however having said that, who could have worn it ?

The buckle appears in at least one period catalogue without any description or designation and furthermore, the buckle appears in at least one buckle reference book with a "youth" association.

As always, any comments would be welcome.

Regards,

David
