Here is a rare Sterling 10K Buckle by LEGENDARY BUCKLE MAKER, MIKE SROUR, featuring a WONDERFUL GOLD BUCKING ...BRONC inside of PICTURE FRAME design in THREE COLORS of GOLD from the 1930s. The face of the buckle is covered in the most BEAUTIFUL single-point hand engraving of a RANCH SCENE including MOUNTAINS, EVERGREEN TREES, BARN & FENCE in ROSE GOLD, CLOUDS, RIDER in YELLOW GOLD and TREE GROVE in GREEN GOLD. A similar buckle is featured on PAGE 10 of DavidStoecklein's book, The Western Buckle (photo shown), and these TWO are the ONLY EXAMPLES of this CUSTOM BUCKLE that I have ever seen or heard of. The buckle is simply signed "STERLING 10K, " as SROUR did not sign the vast majority of his work. Mike SROUR sold out to Joe STANTON, who together with the H. S. Means Company, merged into the SUNSET TRAILS COMPANY in the 1950s. BE SURE TO SEE MY OTHER AUCTION ITEMS!!!Read my feedback and bid with confidence.
