Concho belts are one of the most striking articles of Indian Jewelry. The medallions or plates of silver vary in number according to size. The older type had holes in the center, separated by a bar, through which was passed the strap forming the belt. The first belts were made only of concho's, with leather thongs used for fastening. Later a silver harness buckle was used, then slides of soft copper were used to attach and slide the concho's on belts and finally elaborate buckles replaced the leather thongs and simple buckles. The use of turquoise and other adornment on concho's date from the 1920's.
