Native American Navajo Red Clay Round Jewelry Box with End of the Trail

Description

Native American Navajo Red Clay Round Jewelry Box with End of the Trail by Hilda Whitegoat

This beautiful round Navajo etched jewelry box has traditional Navajo symbols etched around the base. In a circle on the lid of the box is a wonderful etching of a horse with rider on his back, the symbol for the end of the trail. This is the symbol used to remind people of the Trail of Tears when the Native people were marched across the country by soldiers. This symbol shows not the defeat of the Native Americans but the perseverance and determination to survive against all odds. Perfect for keepsakes or that special piece of jewelry. The interior is fully glazed.
