THE LONG JOURNEY

We love pieces that tell a story with each intricately crafted detail. This sterling silver buckle tells of one of the long journeys west. It features a covered wagon with a donkey and mountains in the background, inlaid with onyx, mother-of-pearl, turquoise, and catlinite. The buckle is finished with a vintage leather strap. Simple storytelling details that make for a great addition to any collection.
