Navajo Sterling Silver and Bisbee Turquoise Concho Belt

Harry Morgan


Harry Morgan is an incredible fifth-generation Navajo silversmith from New Mexico who has won many awards for his beautiful jewelry design. He began casting jewelry when he was seven years old and became a silversmith at age 12. After graduating from Gallup High School, Harry received a 4-year scholarship from the Navajo Tribe to study engineering, but school no longer interested him. Being a rodeo cowboy was his next dream. As the popularity of the sport continued, Harry met his certain levels of satisfaction but wanted to experiment with jewelry again. He opened his own silver supply store in Crownpoint, New Mexico and was inspired by his mother to create jewelry in the old pawn style, which he is now famous for.

Harry is the nephew of two well known and popular silversmiths, Charlie Bitsue and Ike Wilson. Today, most of their high quality creations are collector items and can be found in many museums. The stamps that Harry uses to decorate his work were inherited from his parents and uncles or made by him. Much of his work is made with silver that he rolls himself. He puts a satin finish on every piece to give it an antique look. Harry gets his ideas for his creations from the natural elements, such as nature, canyons, colors, and the different times of the day. Harry lives near Gallup, New Mexico, where he grew up. He has won awards at every major Indian art show. Two of his five children have taken up the art of silversmithing.

This fabulous Navajo concho belt is made of beautifully hand stamped sterling silver. The belt contains 12 sterling silver conchos, each measuring 1 1/2 inches by 1 5/8 inches. The black leather belt measures 36 inches in length and is 1/2 inch wide.

The buckle measures 1 1/2 inches by 1 1/2 inches and is set with a gorgeous piece of natural Bisbee turquoise measuring 3/4 inch by 1/2 inch.
