A COLORFUL CONCHO FOR THE TRUE COLLECTOR.
Do you ever see a piece and just audibly gasp? Yeah, this belt is one of those. From the vibrance of the stones to the sheer statement-making size of it, it is sure to set your cowgirl heart aflutter! It’s a contemporary creation by Navajo artisan Daniel Martinez, featuring 5 classic conchos and separated by six traditional butterfly conchos. Each concho is adorned with cabochons of turquoise and orange spiny oyster, on a traditional leather strap finished with a coordinating sterling silver repousse buckle with matching stonework. This is the kind of head-turner that becomes your signature piece and then a family heirloom.
