Pre- David Yurman Belt for Raffle, Luxist Exclusive


David Yurman is celebrating Fashion's Night Out with a theme you might not expect -- Western. Turns out Yurman, known for his signature rope-like twisted cable work, is a cowboy at heart and an accomplished rider. He and his wife Sybil will be hosting an exclusive party at their Madison Avenue Boutique on September 10 complete with cocktails, BBQ-style hors d'oeuvres, country music and a raffle of the spectacular buckle above.

This stunning buckle is sterling silver and bronze with elegant, graceful wings and a picture jasper stone -- what a perfect, beautiful stone. The back is engraved with "1975" and "Putnam Art Works." For the uninitiated, Putman Art Works is the name of a duo which used to exhibit paintings and sculpture art at craft fairs back in the 70s ... that duo was none other than Sybil and David.

The buckle, which a rep for the company has declared "priceless," is a one-of-a-kind must-have for a true David Yurman enthusiast, and is sure to be a huge hit with anyone who appreciates craftsmanship. It serves as proof that true masters create masterpieces long before they're famous.

A portion of sales from the official FNO T-shirts, as well as a percentage from the raffle, will benefit the National September 11th Memorial & Museum.
