RARE UNIQUE STERLING SILVER & AGATE CONCHO BELT, SIGNED, 41"

Description

Welcome to
Antiques & Moore!
This listing is for a gorgeous vintage Sterling Silver and Agate Concho Belt signed.
This spectacular concho belt is a wearable work of art! The belt features seven (7) engraved silver concha and buckle with the mountings being hand hammered with a large natural agate stone placed in the center. These beautiful agate stones are high quality and are hand cut and mounted in the traditional Southwestern style.
Buckle is stamped "Sterling" with unidentified artist's initials "B.W.T." on buckle. We believe this artist to be Native American, however, since we have not be able to document his tribal background, we have listed it as non-Native American.
Leather belt is 41" long and 2" wide and can be cut down to fit.  Individual concha measure 3 3/4" long and 2 3/4" wide. Buckle measures 3 3/4" long and 2 1/2" wide. Total weigh is 1040 grams (including leather).
As the stones are large pieces of natural agate, there may be some minor natural flaws/inclusions in but no noted damage or repairs. This is definitely an unusual and very attractive belt. In over 30 years of collecting vintage Native American silver jewelry, I have never seen another belt similar to this unique creation. It's a real beauty and will surely become one of your favorite accessories and bring you many compliments!
I have loved and collected vintage turquoise and silver items since my first visit in the early 1980's to the Old Town Market in Albuquerque.
