One of the rarest pieces by Effie Calavaza I've encountered, this turquoise and Mediterranean coral concha belt comes from a longtime Virginia collection and remains in pristine, unworn condition. While Effie is celebrated for her iconic snake jewelry, her belts are exceptionally scarce, making this a remarkable find for collectors. The natural turquoise and Mediterranean coral are beautifully balanced across the buckle and matching conchos, all signed with her Effie C. Zuni hallmark. The belt has a substantial feel while remaining perfectly sized for everyday wear. The leather strap has never been punched, allowing it to be custom fit. Buckle measures 1.75" x 2.75", conchos measure 1.25" x 2", and the belt is 41" end to end.
