This stunning collection of original designs displays the magnificent beauty of hand tooled leather in sterling sliver, some with precious stones, designed by Shandon. There are a few pieces which are either one of a kind, or a few pieces which are Limited Edition pieces.
All of this collection comes with a certificate of authenticity, which contains the edition number if it is a limited piece, and the back of each piece is signed by myself and numbered with the edition if it is limited.
 



 
Much of the exquisite tooling on these pieces comes from actual western saddles which have been tooled by extraordinary saddlemakers and leather tooling artisans.

This work simply captures the beauty of their art in a permanent wearable piece of art. I have been honored to do commissioned work by stores and individuals such as Billy Martin's of New York and LA for radio personality Don Imus, and the State of Texas.

There are several museums which feature the jewelry including the Gene Autry Museum in Los Angeles, CA, and the Bob Bullock Natural History Museum in Austin, Texas, as well as the Texas State Capitol Gift Shop. It was also a featured gift product in the 2007 issue of Cowboys & Indians magazine, for their Christmas Gift Guide. Please see our Retail Locations for other fine retail store locations.


 

 
I hope you thoroughly enjoy wearing a piece of our western heritage, as much as I enjoy creating them. It brings back fond memories of growing up in a ranch/rodeo/equine event background.

There is not much that can compete with the creaking of leather, the smell of a sweaty horse, while gathering cattle watching the sun come up over the horizon early in the early morning dew.




 

 
The fine craftsmanship of saddlemakers and silver engravers will always be a favorite thing for me to gaze upon.

Although I do not take credit for the actual idea of reproducing this beautiful artisan tooling, I did decide to make these pieces available through production work to the general public by designing, making, and then producing them for mainstream distribution.

These three twenty-two caliber pistols in the logo at the top is a design I came up with to capture a western visual of the verse Proverbs 3:22, which states "... to wear upon your neck as an ornament of grace."
