Description

Native American Hopi Made Bolo by Jason Takala

This beautiful overlay bolo with a 14K gold Man in the maze accented by overlay of water and prayer feather symbols. The piece is 2 inches long and 1.5 inches wide on a braided bolo. The 2.5 inch long custom tips finish the piece. The Great Seal of the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community is this ancient pattern. The pattern figured for untold years in Pima baskets and represents the Maze, or house of “Se-eh-ha.” The legend states the “Man in the Maze” helps children understand the meaning of life. The maze depicts experiences and choices we make in our journey through life. It illustrates the search for balance—physical, social, mental and spiritual. In the middle of the maze are found a persons dreams and goals. Legend says when we reach the center, the Sun God is there to greet us, bless us and pass us into the next world.
