Belt & Bolo Set, Inlay, Multi Stone, Horse Profile, Palomino, Lincoln & Helen Zunie Hallmark, Vintage, 1752｜ Fashion Accessories

VIBRANT VINTAGE PAIR BY SOUGHT AFTER ARTISANS.
This impossible-to-ignore bolo and buckle combo was crafted by renowned Zuni husband and wife, Helen and Lincoln Zunie; their work is highly coveted and collectible. The belt is a black vintage leather strap adorned with a statement buckle boasting an impressive Palomino horse head made with onyx, turquoise, shell, mother of pearl, and coral, set in heavy silver. The artists added dimensionality with silver details. The complementing bolo features a matching horse head of similar stone and silver composition on a classic braided cord with ornate sterling silver aiguillettes accented by tiny stamped cylinder dangles.
