Our Leather and Silver Concho Belt is a stunning specimen of Navajo craftsmanship. Conchos are made from silver coins that have been stamped with a unique design. The Navajo learned the art of metal working from the Mexicans, and it is believed that the first concho belt was an adaptation of horse bridle buckles found there. This piece features 20 conchos and a buckle strung on a leather belt.
