We hit play on Johnny Cash, fired up the studio lights, and captured this beauty. A lost-wax cast brass buckle that channels the grit and legend of Folsom Prison.

🎶 I hear the train a-comin’
It’s rollin’ ’round the bend
And I ain’t seen the sunshine since I don’t know when
I’m stuck in Folsom Prison, and time keeps draggin’ on
But that train keeps a-rollin’ on down to San Antone 🎶
