Native American Zuni Made Inlaid Pin/Pendant--Vintage

Description

1970s Native American Zuni Made Inlaid Pin/Pendant by Amy Quandelacy Weslay

This larger Quandelacy pendant is pristinely inlaid with Sleeping Beauty turquoise, mother-of-pearl and lapis. The open channel in a double curve represents a hummingbird or the sign of friendship. The hummingbird is a messenger who not only stops time, but also represents beauty. The pendant is 3.75 inches long complete and 2 inches wide. A beautiful piece of wearable art. There is another set of initials below Amy's so I have provided a photo of the back of the pendant as well.
