About The Overlay Silver Disc Plus Leather Strap Bracelet

I dare anyone to locate another one !

We stumbled across this remarkably special item and I could not wait to present it.

This handsome bracelet by Hopi artist, Andrew Saufkie is a comfortable "easy" accessory that sacrifices nothing when it comes to good looks.

This clever combination of materials is a happy marraige of Hopi traditional design elements with a more urban rock and roll or even "biker" culture edge.  Its design is timeless, a criteria for universal beauty.
