Sarah Buckles Larner, longtime Steamboat resident, created jewelry that is worn by Jeff Bridges throughout the movie “Crazy Heart.” Bridges–who’s already won a Golden Globe for his performance—plays a washed-up country-western singer searching for salvation with the help of a journalist who discovers the real man behind the musician. The exact pieces worn in the movie are featured on Sarah’s website HERE. The production crew of “Crazy Heart” searched out Elk Teeth Jewelry and found Sarah’s website. Wanting the finest work in this medium, they contacted Sarah and purchased a set of earrings, which Sarah then converted in record time into pendants for a necklace. Throughout the movie, Bridges is seen wearing these pieces. A crewmember of “Crazy Heart” told Sarah she felt her work was the best out there and exactly what they were looking for.
Sarah’s business, The Silver Spur, has been located in Steamboat for almost 35 years. Sarah creates completely custom jewelry ranging from diamond and gold wedding rings, to quality elk tooth jewelry and custom belt buckles. When asked about her specializing in elk tooth jewelry Sarah replied, “We have some of the best elk hunting in the entire country. I had so many hunters want pieces that I began working in this medium. There aren’t many high-end jewelers specializing in this, so I am one of only a hand full in the entire country doing it and doing it well.” Sarah’s website receives orders from all over the country for original and one-of-a-kind elk tooth pieces. Men looking for quality jewelry to wear and represent their prize bull elk’s teeth place the majority of her orders.
Sarah’s studio is located in her home with an office located above the Old Town Pub. She can be reached at 970-879-3880. The movie “ Crazy Heart” is now playing at Wildhorse Cinemas.
