SWIRLING SIMPLICITY

Simple details are always beautiful. This belt and buckle from Montana Silversmiths is the epitome of that. The sleek vintage leather strap is a great base for the sterling silver buckle's details. Swirling scroll details are etched around the round buckle with gorgeous flowers in opposing corners, and it is finished with a twisted rope border. It may be a simple belt, but it isn't lacking in beauty.
