The Edaakie family of Zuni, New Mexico is world renowned for their inlaid jewelry. Dale Edaakie, son of Nancy and Dennis Edaakie, created this exquisite elk buckle following in the Edaakie tradition. According to Dale, it was that elk that gave him the idea to make different animals from A to Z, domestic and wild. He loves making animals because he can engrave more detail on them, with birds he can only engrave detail on the wings. He describes himself as a Wildlife Artist.
