Possibly Navajo sterling silver women's Western concho belt. Large. Excellent condition. 11 conchos that strongly resemble Navajo style silver work, are high quality, hand-tooled, and heavier than the cheap, thin modern imitations. 10 are the same size, approx 2.75" x 2.25" but the concho buckle is larger, approx 3.25" x 2.5". The buckle is marked "Sterling" and has a maker's mark not found in major online databases, including the "fake marks" database. It is a "W" inside a horse shoe. Each concho is slotted in the center large enough for a 1/2" belt, but also has 2 copper colored metal belt loops soldered onto the reverse large enough to fit a 3/4" belt. The 38-40" x 1/2" black leather belt strap fits perfectly and is in nice condition, but can easily be replaced. Belts similar in style and craftsmanship sell online for $400-900. Very Attractive, high quality craftsmanship.
