In 1977 Gene Klein began building bits and spurs for his cowboy friends and from the very beginning his goal was to create pieces that were absolutely functional. He wanted a product that no matter what its appearance, any horseman would know straight away it was right. Soon enough, Gene's artistry began to take hold in his work and now cowboys and collectors alike have come to appreciate Gene's attention to detail and his uncompromising ability to combine function and art in every piece he makes.
Gene Klein has been designing and crafting unique hand engraved sterling silver and gold finery since 1988.
