Shield Pendant With Turquoise Inlay

A Native American inlay sterling silver pendant with American turquoise.

A defining technique of Zuni silversmithing, inlay work involves stones precisely cut and fitted into silver to create mosaic patterns, drawing on stone-cutting traditions that predate European contact.

Sourced directly from Native American artists on the reservations of New Mexico and Arizona, handmade using traditional techniques passed down through generations.

Length 3.1 × 2.0cm.
