An inspiring photo collection of vintage and new Western style accessories--many handmade, one-of-a-kind pieces.
More than 200 photos of cowboy boots, buckles, and bolos take us on a Western journey through more than a century. From handcrafted examples of cowboy and cowgirl boots, decorative belt buckles fashioned by silversmiths and engravers, and slides for bolo ties, you can almost smell the boot leather feel the smooth stones and silver engraving.
Cowgirls, cowboys, or anyone who loves Western wear can put on these iconic symbols of the cowboy, wherever they are in the world.
