Concho Belts
Navajo, Hopi and Zuni Concho Belts — Vintage & Contemporary Sterling Silver with Turquoise
The concho belt is part wearable art, part portable wealth, and part living history. The Gordon Collection carries both vintage and contemporary concho belts — evaluated for silver weight, quality of turquoise, tightness of bezel setting, and overall design integrity. Both Vintage and Contemporary examples represent some of the finest wearable objects in American Southwest art, and our 50+ years in the trade means we know the difference between those pieces and the lightweight commercial belts that dominate most of the market.
Concho belts are worn, displayed, and collected. Our finest examples spend as much time hanging on a wall as they do around a waist — the scale and visual weight of a quality concho belt makes it as effective as a decorative object as it is a fashion statement.
