For your bidding pleasure is a sterling silver belt buckle by Verden Mansfield. This buckle features a Sunface and eagle overlay design with near perfect cut outs and lines. An etching technique was used to create a textured background which was then darkened to emphasize and add contrast to the design. It is sterling silver and would look great on anyone!
Overlay jewelry consists of two pieces of silver soldered together. The top layer has a design drawn and cut out. When the design is complete, the top layer is soldered to a second layer of silver, which will show through the open areas of the design on the top.
