Joan Begay Sterling Silver and Turquoise Concho Leather Bracelet

Handcrafted by Navajo artist Joan Begay this bracelet is a contemporary take using traditional elements of leather and sterling silver. Featuring stamped sterling silver with turquoise accents in the style of the iconic and classic concho belt, this bracelet is an easy way to add iconic Native American jewelry into your wardrobe.

An icon of Native American jewelry, the concho belt was developed from Plains Indians' hair ornaments and Spanish bridle decorations, and became a distinctly Navajo form of jewelry. The concha is one of the most widely recognized shapes in Native American jewelry, featuring a silver oval or circle that is stamped with a central radiating design.
