Zuni Sterling Raven and Gemstone Inlay Pendant

Zuni stone inlay orb set between a .925 sterling silver raven's wings. This pendant measures approximately 1 x 2 inches and is marked 5*. Zuni jewelry is famous for its inlay style, which involves working stones and fitting them together, sometimes side by side or with silver channels in between. Zuni jewelry is often made with sterling silver and natural turquoise from the Sleeping Beauty Mine. The work is priced by the amount of handiwork, not the weight of the silver or the value of the turquoise.  In Zuni culture, a raven fetish is a symbol of courage, psychic abilities, and transformation. It can also be a sign of auspicious or foreboding change. The raven is also thought to be a messenger of mystery and a change in consciousness.  Review all photos thoroughly as they are considered a part of the detailed item description.
