Handmade Pendant by Native American Zuni Pueblo Artist

This pendant is from our collection of Zuni Pueblo Native American jewelry and it is handmade in sterling silver. It is a channel inlay style pendant with natural Mother of Pearl, Yellow Shell, Turquoise, Coral and Onyx made by Zuni Pueblo artist.

Zuni Pueblo jewelers are well known for their exacting lapidary work that celebrates the stones and shells in mosaic designs. Stone setting techniques include cluster work, needlepoint, channel and mosaic inlay. Silver was introduced in their jewelry style around the 1870’s, after silversmith work was learned from Navajos. Turquoise, mother of pearl, spiny oyster shells, lapis, coral, onyx and man-made opal are some of the materials used in the outstanding Zuni jewelry. Zuni Pueblo is located in New Mexico near the Arizona border.
