Description
This belt has 12 hand stamped silver oval diamond cut out conchos and a great silver punched buckle. Each silver concho is 2 inches long, the buckle is 1 5/8 inches long, total belt length is 47 inches. The belt is not signed which is not unusual for this early period. From the estate of John Koehler. Collected in 1950's - 1960's when he purchased a tradding post. Mr. Koehler had a huge estate of Navajo, Anasazi, Pueblo and other Native American collectables including hundreds of Concho belts and squash blossom silver necklaces that came from the trading post. The silver conchas and buckles were put on newer harness leather at a later date. It is unknown what the name of the post was but the majority of the jewelry, belts and blossom necklaces were obviously made by the same Navajo silver smith or same family.
