    No Horsing Around - This Buckle is the Real Deal!

    Double D Ranch is pleased to offer this beautiful vintage belt by renowned Zuni artisan Isabel Simplicio. The unique statement buckle is a sterling silver shield with carved applique and stampwork, adorned with four polished turquoise cabochons and, the real focal point is the horse in profile crafted from black onyx and mother of pearl. The strap is a tooled leather with ethnographic use that adds an element of character as if it’s a handed down heirloom. Whether you’re a rodeo queen or a casual cowgirl, this belt is a fabulous vintage find. 

     Isabel Simplicio (1928 - ?; Zuni). Mosaic inlay; nuget work. Wife of Chauncey Simplicio.
