Talk about a statement piece. This beauty by Ernest Bilagody, Sr., boasts a striking sterling silver buckle in a sunburst-style spin on a classic concho. The intricate stampwork, tiny eyelets, and central repousse are complemented by a single stone of beautiful blue turquoise. The vintage strap is amazing, intricately tooled with its own unique design.
