This piece is part of our Masterwork series — rare, architectural works produced in limited quantity each year. Built at the bench in our Adirondack studio, it represents our most substantial and deliberate output.

Forged from heavy sterling silver in our Adirondack jewelry studio, this one-of-a-kind silver jewelry commission brings together elk ivory, turquoise, and sculpted silver elements in a disciplined, intentional form. Built at the bench with traditional tool work, the buckle reflects structural weight, balanced composition, and purposeful design.

Created as a singular commission, this is a fully custom piece—formed and finished by hand.

Form & Wearability

Substantial in scale and presence, this buckle is constructed from heavy-gauge sterling silver to ensure lasting strength and visual authority. The layout centers two elk ivories, framed by multiple turquoise stones selected for their earth-driven tone and matrix.

Silver feathers rise through the composition, introducing vertical movement, while bear claw elements ground the design with strong directional lines. Every component is placed to maintain proportion and balance across the surface.

The result is a buckle built to carry weight—physically and visually—while remaining wearable and structurally sound for long-term use.

Material & Studio Practice

This piece is part of our hand-forged sterling silver jewelry tradition, shaped entirely through hands-on silversmithing methods. Hammer, file, and fire define the surface and structure.

Heavy sterling silver forms the foundation. Elk ivory introduces organic contrast. Turquoise adds depth and tonal variation. Each setting is individually constructed and secured at the bench. Engraving and surface refinement are completed through precise tool work, ensuring cohesion between metal and natural material.

The composition reflects artisan sterling silver shaped with discipline, intention, and control—hallmarks of our Adirondack jewelry studio.
