Totême Byzantine belt in Gold
The Byzantine belt in Gold is an authentic Totême accessory in Metallic, from the Spring/Summer 2026 collection. Totême is the Stockholm house Elin Kling and Karl Lindman founded in 2014, and its accessories finish the ready-to-wear rather than compete with it: monogram silk scarves and generous wool and cashmere scarves, plain knitted hats and gloves, slim leather belts, Italian-made acetate sunglasses, and small leather goods that close with the T-Lock twist clasp from the bags. Materials and the maker’s country are stated on each piece. Coveti authenticates every one before it ships.
Part belt, part jewellery, the Byzantine belt is made from 24kt gold-plated recycled brass. It sits on the hips over a knit dress as easily as on tailoring. It comes with a lobster clasp. Made in Italy.

How to Wear the Byzantine belt in Gold
Consider it a quiet building block for the wardrobe. Wear it low on the hips over a knit dress, then over a shirt and wide trousers. Let it be the only jewellery.
- The Totême uniform: A long wool coat, wide trousers and a flat leather shoe. One accessory in the same family of neutrals finishes it.
- Tonal by design: Keep the scarf, the gloves and the bag within a shade of each other. Black with black, then camel with ecru, is the house’s own habit.
- The scarf as a layer: Totême built its name partly on the scarf jacket, and it treats every scarf as part of the coat. Knot it inside the collar, never on top.
- Small leather goods: Match a T-Lock cardholder to the bag that carries it, so the hardware reads as one set.

About Totême
Totême is a Swedish house based in Stockholm, founded in 2014 by Elin Kling and Karl Lindman. It began with ready-to-wear built on clean lines, honest fabric and quiet detail, and the accessories grew out of the same idea: the T-Lock twist clasp on the bags, the belted tote, the set-back heel on the shoes and the sculptural, hand-finished jewellery. The official house site is toteme.com. Totême is a Coveti editor favourite for women who want considered pieces that move easily from city to coast.
“The Byzantine belt in Gold is how Totême finishes a look: quietly, in a good material, with nothing added that does not need to be there.”
Gemma Deeks, Fashion Editor at Coveti
