Likely made in the 1940’s or 50’s, this rare and unique buckle was crafted at home in the brutalist carving style. Cast in solid brass and inspired by classic western sculpture in the style of Frederic Remington. The scene has a raw, hand carved quality with bold relief and movement, framed by heavy decorative edges. Signed by the maker and extremely rare, this piece bridges folk craftsmanship and western art history. Rugged and incredibly cool.
