Beautiful Big Buckle Mystery, Can Anyone Help!

Identifying & Discovering
1

Hello Everyone,
I’m new to this forum.
I recently bought a gorgeous large Turquoise and Silver Buckle, and would love to know more about where it came from and any information.
There isn’t any hallmarks or names.
Bought in the Blue Mountains Australia from a guy who said it came from Hollywood… along with some other pieces.
Love to know more on who and when it was made.
Thanks
Loulou

It kinda looks like the work of Loren Thomas Begay, but it may not be Native at all. I’m not even sure that is turquoise, it could be Chrysocolla. Nice piece wherever it comes from.

The top sold cab looks a lot like your buckle (to me anyhow). :slight_smile:
