Sam W. Graves, Navajo Nation, sterling silver 36.5" long concho belt

About the Item

This handcrafted 110 gram sterling silver concho belt by Navajo silversmith Sam W. Graves is a true work of art. Each concho is intricately designed and meticulously handcrafted, showcasing the artisan's skill and attention to detail. The sterling silver shines beautifully and adds a touch of elegance to any outfit. This concho belt is a timeless piece that can be worn for years to come and passed down as a cherished heirloom. Perfect for adding a touch of Southwestern flair to your wardrobe. The belt is 36.5 inches long laid flat. There is 5 inches of round link extender chain with a wearable length of up to 36.5 inches. The main concho is 1.75" wide and 1.5" high. It is inscribed on the back Sam Graves sterling. The smaller belt conchos measure 1.25" wide and 1.13" tall. Very very fine to excellent condition When the Navajo began silversmithing, concho belts were one of the first pieces they created. As a popular piece of today’s American Western culture, the concho belt remains an enduring piece of Navajo jewelry and culture. The concho design is so emblematic that conchos can now be seen in other jewelry styles, such as earrings, bracelets, and rings. The conchos are decorated with intricate patterns and designs that often represent natural elements such as animals, plants, and geometric shapes.
