Description
PLEASE SEE MY OTHER AUCTIONS FOR MORE NATIVE AMERICAN ITEMS Pleased to offer this fantastic concho belt from the Frank Patania shop. Hallmarked with his well known conjoined FP, with the Thunderbird below, Also stamped sterling. Frank Patania (1899 to 1964) and his family are renowned throughout the Southwest for fine silversmithing in the Native American style. He also taught and employed many well known native silversmiths. You can go to Modernsilver.com for a complete bio. The belt is a true collectable and rare on the market. I would guess this dates from the 1950s. I purchased this belt from a local antique dealer. The concho belt features a nicely done buckle and 10 oval conchos. The buckle measures 3 by 2 7/8 inches The conchos measure 2 1/2 by 2 inches. They have the typical copper slides on the back. The weight is 298 grams including the leather belt. The belt leather is 30 inches long and 1 inch wide. It appears the concho pieces have been on the belt for sometime. You can see the green oxidation has stained the leather, Currently the concho pieces are spaced closely together, the owner must have been small waisted. There are superficial scratches on the silver from previous wear. INSURANCE IS REQUIRED ON THIS ITEM. STANDARD POSTAL RATES. Please email me PRIOR to bidding if you have ANY questions. All sales final.See my seller instructions below. I will offer insurance on ALL items at sale end. Standard postal rates. Thanks
