Buckle Care

Your buckle is handcrafted from steel and finished with a protective wax coating to help prevent rust. With proper care, you can keep it looking its best for years to come.

• Keep your buckle dry and avoid prolonged exposure to moisture.
• If surface rust appears, gently remove it with fine steel wool.
• Apply a light coat of oil to exposed steel to help prevent future rust.
• Polish silver, copper, and nickel with a soft polishing cloth.
• Avoid harsh chemicals and cleaners, especially around stones.
• Natural stones are delicate and should be protected from drops and hard impacts.

Headstall Buckles
These buckles work a little harder and spend more time exposed to sweat, dirt, moisture, and the elements. Wipe them down after use, keep them as dry as possible, and oil, oil, oil! A light coat of oil on the steel regularly will help protect against rust and keep your buckle looking its best.
