Bold. Balanced. Unapologetically Southwest.

This hand-forged sterling silver belt buckle by Navajo artist Rose Tsosie is a commanding fusion of ancestral design and rugged elegance. Its round, cut-out form evokes the sunwheel—a sacred Navajo symbol of harmony—framed by precise stamp work radiating in four cardinal directions.

At the heart sits a breathtaking, natural Kingman turquoise stone with classic desert matrixing, bezel-set and framed in hand-twisted sterling rope. The oxidized finish adds rich depth and contrast, while the heavy gauge silver gives the piece substantial weight and a timeless patina.
