    Description

    Domestic Buffalo Bubalus bubalis bones are used to make this breastplate as they are a NON-endangered species of buffalo, Non endangered Mule deer
    Odocoileus hemionus was used to make the leather for this piece.
    Each row is strung on a single strand so if it ever breaks you will only have to fix one or two rows, unlike other sellers on here who use one piece of string for the entire breastplate.... This should last you many many years.
    I used half a deer hide on the fringe and straps so this is super thick when it comes to the leather fringe. Just gorgeous! Each strip of fringe is 10" long alone PER strand
    The size of the bone part of this item can be seen with the ruler next to it 42 rows of Buffalo bone and heavy authentic brass beads. All brass and bone and NO plastic
    this is an XXL breastplate.
    THIS IS ALL REAL buffalo BONE it weighs approx 2lbs and is HEAVY real brass beads and double straps to help hold the weight. Side straps to go around your waist.
    Last picture in this listing is a photo of the actual artist.

I also carry real wolf, mountain lion and bear items on my direct website but they're not allowed for sale through this venue.
