    Giddy up!

    This colorful creation is the work of the late Lincoln and Helen Zunie, renowned Zuni jewelry artisans active in the ‘60s and ‘70s, best known for their horse and cattle inlay designs. This buckle is a gorgeous iteration of a black horse, accented with colorful geometric inlay design that carries to the two keepers. Gorgeous and collectible!
