Zuni ring

Thunderbird sterling silver ring inlaid of black-jet, coral and turquoise.
 

Thunder Bird is a South West classic symbol for the Natives. It is represented as an impressive condor able to create thunder by beating its wings and lightning by blinking its eyes.

The handmade Zuni inlay is a gathering of different stones (most often turquoise, coral, mother-of-pearl, black jet), carved and put together in order to create a thin geometrical pattern. The piece is then polished in order to give a smooth and elegant finish to the jewel.

Size of the Thunder Bird : 2,5cm x 2cm (1 inch x 0.3/4 inch)

This ring is in sterling silver.

Proudly handmade in the USA.
