Â
ADD SOME UNEXPECTED AWESOME TO YOUR OUTFIT WITH A BOLD BOLO.Â
This 1960s vintage beauty features a statement slide boasting a mother of pearl horse head profile inlaid in tortoise shell, framed with sterling silver details and accented by a pair of freeform turquoise nuggets. The cord is a traditional braided leather tipped with sterling silver aiguillettes.Â
[The style looks strikingly similar to Simplicio, but it is not hallmarked, so it cannot be adequately attributed.]
