DESCRIPTION:
If you are looking for elegance and beauty, you have found it! This piece of Native American jewelry is Hopi overlay hand crafted by artist George Phillips out of genuine sterling silver. Overlay is a process that utilizes at least two layers of sterling silver. One layer forms the foundation, while the second is used to design the individual detailed overlay. In this belt buckle, the second layer forms a marvelous Bear Paw, Prayer Sticks, and Water Wave, designs that gives the piece a remarkable look. The water waves design represents continuous life. The bear paw is usually considered a way to call for the power of the animal spirit, or as an indication of the presence of the spirit. It is a symbol that represents inner strength. Belt buckle is stamped sterling and hallmarked.
