Belt, A Vintage, Concho, Turquoise, From the Iris Apfel Estate, Vintage, 742

TIMELESS STYLE WITH AWE-INSPIRING PROVENANCE

How many times in your life will you have the opportunity to own something of Iris Apfel’s? The inimitable style icon, who passed away in 2024, coined one of our favorite phrases ever: More is more, and less is a bore. She was known for her affinity for color, her signature thick-rimmed glasses, and her opulent and often oversized accessories. We were fortunate to have the opportunity to acquire some of the late legend’s accessories, and (though we’ll admit we kept several for ourselves), we are thrilled to offer them to you.

This particular piece of Iris Apfel’s style story is an exquisite Navajo creation. The tan vintage leather strap is adorned with a series of scallop-edged conchos, all crafted in polished nickle silver and adorned with a single vibrant turquoise cabochon. The matching concho buckle, featuring a turquoise stone, completes the piece. It’s a classic for your collection with a one-of-a-kind brag behind it.
