Sterling Silver Coral and Turquoise Belt Buckle by Steven B. (Navajo)

This vintage sterling silver belt buckle signed “Steven B.” showcases the beauty and balance of traditional Navajo design. The buckle features a bold arrangement of three natural red coral cabochons accented by a single vibrant turquoise stone, each hand-set in sawtooth bezels. The stones are framed by hand-tooled sterling silver, including nugget appliqué, twisted rope accents, and flowing leaf motifs, all arranged over a subtly textured and oxidized background.

The combination of warm coral, cool turquoise, and oxidized silver gives this piece a timeless Southwestern elegance. Measuring 60 mm × 72 mm (approximately 2.36″ × 2.83″), the buckle fits belts up to 1½ inches wide and is stamped “Steven B.” and “Sterling” on the reverse. Its craftsmanship, symmetry, and balanced color palette make it both a striking accessory and a collectible piece of Navajo artistry.
