releif buckle and conchos

castagnos&s · Feb 6, 2009

These are some buckles that I made to match a bit for a customer. They are 12g. steel with a three quarter inch hole. The conchos are 16g. sterling the round one is 2.75" the diamond is 2.5 x 3 and the spade about 3x3. Thanks for looking, Mike

Those are very nice. I like how the scrolls don't have a wriggled backbone and how you just use the liner to finish the backbone on the ends of the scrolls. Or maby I am all wrong and you can straighten me out. Very unique and nice. Thanks for posting. Greenhorns like me need all the good examples of western we can find. Seth

First of all a thank you to everyone that wrote me. Aparently not to many people were interested so i appreciate your kind words. Seth I usually draw my scrolls in and thencut my bright cuts and liner cuts. Some times I will go around the backbone where it doesnt touch any borders or cap cuts and run a square graver around it to fill in, but not much deeper than the liner if at all. mack have a go at it they're pretty simple to do and they pay good.
