native american sterling pendants

These necklaces were made using a Native American-made belt buckle. David Thorp removed the four corners of the buckle and made them into pendants on adjustable leather cords. $16 each.

See the rack necklaces are hanging from? Amazing what a gate-turned-magazine-rack can also be used for, heh? A jewelry rack recommended to the ones who own enough to use a 6' tall storage system. See below image.

Spiedel watch band rings
