This extraordinary buckle by Yaqui/Spanish master inlay artist Danny Romero showcases his remarkable ability to transform stone into sculpture. Departing from his celebrated Native American portraiture, Romero captures the beloved Tasmanian Devil roaring across the Southwest on a motorcycle, evoking the spirit of Route 66 and the freedom of the open road. Created from an intricate mosaic of dolomite, turquoise, malachite, shell, jet, opal, and coral, this whimsical yet masterfully executed work reflects the artistry that made Romero one of the world's premier stone inlay artists. Following his passing in 2018, his work has become increasingly sought after by collectors and museums alike.
The buckle measures approximately 3½ x 4½ inches.
