Here is another exquisite concho belt displaying the masterful silversmithing of Frank Patania, Sr. and bearing his coveted FP oval hallmark. The belt is entirely hand-tooled with buckle and conchos all accented by thick, twisted-wire framing. Sam Patania commented this concho belt is finely crafted and is one of his favorites for the durability of construction. This is truly a wonderful belt to wear…a classic design that is quintessential Patania and an icon of Southwest imagery.
