Vintage 1980s SSI Handcrafted USA Southwestern Turquoise Belt Buckle 3.5” Western
Striking vintage Southwestern belt buckle handcrafted in the USA and signed © SSI. The large oval buckle features three turquoise cabochons set against a dark recessed center, surrounded by highly dimensional floral, feather and scrollwork decoration.
The detailed silver-tone metalwork has excellent depth and contrast, giving the buckle the presence of traditional Southwestern silverwork without being sterling silver. A substantial statement piece for a Western, cowboy or Southwestern wardrobe — and an especially good vintage gift for him.
Measures approximately 3 x 3.5 inches and accommodates a belt up to approximately 1.5 inches wide.
Silver-tone metal, non-sterling; exact alloy unknown; Stones appear to be genuine turquoise based on visual inspection and manufacturer’s tags documented on closely comparable SSI examples.
