GIDDY UP!
This colorful creation is the work of the late Lincoln Zunie, a renowned Zuni jewelry artisan active in the ‘60s and ‘70s, best known for his horse and cow inlay designs. This Ranger buckle set is a gorgeous iteration of an appaloosa, accented with colorful geometric inlay design that carries to the two keepers. It’s on a classic brown leather strap with simple tooled detail. Gorgeous.
