DESCRIPTION:

This is a very exquisite belt buckle that must not be overlooked! This piece of Native American jewelry is Navajo overlay hand crafted by artist Stanley Gene, 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 dazzling Kokopelli, Corn Stalk, and other Native American designs for a charming look. The corn is a powerful symbol in many tribes. It is used for prayer of fertility and a good growing season. The Kokopelli is a common fertility symbol throughout the Southwest. In Native American beliefs, the Kokopelli visits various communities, seducing and impregnating the young women drawn to the tones of his flute playing. The belt buckle is stamped sterling and hallmarked.
