Cowboy style belt buckles for men in Texas and in Chihuahua (my two native lands) are typically large and flashy. Sporting them is considered manly and tough. I wanted to recreate this concept with a twist. The origins of life emanate from here. Conception, development, everything a human will grow up to be start here. Few things are tougher than that, in my opinion.
