Description
Carmel Remington by Harry H Hudson
4-piece Sterling Silver Buckle Set
The Carmel Remington 4-piece buckle set was designed by Harry H. Hudson, renowned collector of western memorabilia. It is Solid Sterling Silver, hand fabricated and hand engraved. Harry loves the size of this buckle set – 5/8″. This size was very popular with cowboys in the 1920s and 1930s. It is for certain the most elegant and refined size for a dress buckle. This particular set has no stamps on the buckle back to identify it as a Carmel Remington. Without those identifying stamps, this buckle is undeniably an artist proof.
This buckle has a 5/8″ (16mm) opening and is designed to be mounted on a ranger belt, in classic western fashion.
About Harry H. Hudson
Harry H. Hudson is a collector and connoisseur of western buckles and an acknowledged authority on the history of western silversmiths and their work. His fascination with western buckles began with his boyhood in Texas and memories of a khaki-clad cowman whose only concession to conceit was the silver buckle that bore his cattle brand in gold. He successfully sold fine buckles, commissioned according to his own designs, at his Two Moons Trading Company in Dallas from 1984 to 2002.
Harry’s passion for perfection is reflected in the distinctive designs and exceptional craftsmanship seen in his buckle collection. Meticulous attention is given to every detail, from selection of highest-quality materials and mountings to the intricate hand-engraving and hand-overlaying. Hallmarks, including individual serial numbers, are hand-struck on each buckle in the classic tradition, attesting to the unique quality and character of each piece.
Investing in a Harry H. Hudson buckle is a tip-of-the-hat to the deep character of American Western tradition.
