Cool vintage feather and hogan pendant - the feather is detailed and the hogan has blackened detail to make the Hogan stand out. These are quite possibly Native/Navajo made but as they are un-marked, I cannot say for sure - I'd probably date somewhere in the late 70's or 80's. A sweet combo and very unique.
The hogan & feather pendant is vintage, but in excellent vintage condition with patina noted. Tests as sterling. The 18” Italian Sterling trace chain is new with spring ring clasp and marked “Italy” and “925”. Please see all photos as these are part of the description and give the best idea of size.
The upper round Hogan bead is symbolic of the sun for the Navajo (Dine'), who's traditional dwelling was a round (sometimes oval, cone shaped or square) Hogan. The Hogan was made of timber or stones, tree bark and clay with a domed roof and a hole in the top to allow smoke to escape. It's front door traditionally faced East toward the rising sun (good luck), and Father Sun is one of the most revered of the Navajo Deities.
Feathers often symbolize honor, freedom, trust, power, wisdom & communication with the spiritual realms. They are revered in many cultures, but are particularly associated with Native American cultures, where they are considered gifts that signify Honor & Bravery, among other things, depending on the bird they came from.
