Tufa casting is a jewelry technique where molten silver is poured into a tufa stone that is carved out with designs. The tufa molds can only be used once, as they are destroyed in the removal of the cooled silver pieces. Noted jeweler Anthony Lovato’s handsome tufa cast sterling silver belt buckle hosts two powerful Horses trotting by moonlight and a stunning Pilot Mountain turquoise cabochon from Nevada. The belt buckle is about 3″ long and 2 1/2″ wide. It will accommodate an approximately 1 1/2″ wide belt. Signed by the artist.
