Red River Skull - Sterling Silver
Made to order. Please allow 3–4 weeks for fabrication prior to shipment.
The Look
The Red River buckle traces back to original Bohlin work created for Red River, commissioned for John Wayne and members of the cast. Its form reflects Bohlin’s long-standing tradition of Western design, where function and ornament are brought together through hand fabrication.
Defined by its clean field and framed border, the design was intended as a foundation for custom work. The surface is ideally suited for brands, initials, or historic Bohlin motifs, allowing each piece to carry a personal mark within a form rooted in Western film history.
A twisted rope border frames the composition, adding depth and definition to the buckle’s form. Within the field, the Skull provides a focal point, balancing the open surface with a classic Bohlin motif.

Care
Bohlin buckles are made to be worn, not just displayed. Crafted from solid precious metals with hand-finished details, each piece is intended to develop a natural patina over time — a signature of heirloom-quality silver and gold.
To clean, gently wipe with a soft, non-abrasive cloth and, if needed, use mild diluted soap and warm water to remove surface dirt. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely before storing.
Avoid chemical polishes or ultrasonic cleaners, as they can damage intentional finishes, inlays, and natural oxidation. Patina is part of the story — let it evolve with you.
