Fine Vintage Zuni Sterling Silver 18 Petit Point Snake Eyes Turquoise Pendant

On offer is an authentic vintage ZUNI Sterling Silver pendant adorned with eighteen (18) amazing southwestern sky blue Petit Point Snake Eyes Turquoise stones and twenty six (26) silver raindrops. 925 for Sterling, but not for its maker. This was common in earlier Native American silver work prior to the 1970s. We believe this classic pendant was created circa 1950 or perhaps earlier. This pendant was crafted with attention to detail in the ZUNI tradition and is in very good vintage condition (see ALL photos for an accurate detailed depiction).

The eighteen (18) beautifully hand cut and polished turquoise petit point snake eyes stones are in very good condition with no chips or cracks. The turquoise stones each measure approx 3/32 diameter and are firmly and securely set within smooth silver bezels. Three (3) of the stones have a bit of red pigment around them. This ZUNI pendant measures approx. 2 1/8" long including bail x 1" wide.

The opening in the bail is approx 1/4 diameter. The weight of the piece is 9.6 grams. This classic vintage ZUNI Sterling Silver and hand cut and polished Snake Eyes Petit Point Turquoise pendant created by a skilled silver and stone artisan would make an outstanding addition to any Twentieth Century Native American ZUNI Silver and Turquoise Jewelry, Snake Eyes Petit Point Turquoise or Historic American Cultural Arts and Crafts collection. We have been involved in the design and creation of contemporary jewelry at the undergraduate and post graduate level since 1967. In 1975 we opened a gallery of hand wrought fine art contemporary jewels and have since handled thousands of unique, one of a kind and limited edition pieces crafted predominantly by American artisans with a special emphasis on Native American Art.

Will be determined upon request. We believe our photos and description to be an accurate testament. Thus, ALL SALES ARE FINAL. Thanks for looking and good luck.
