Halskette - USA Thunderbird-Halskette (Ohne Mindestpreis)

This necklace features a hand-carved mother of pearl thunder bird pendant combined with traditional heishi beads, created by the Pueblo artisans. The pendant showcases the natural iridescence of mother of pearl shell, carved into a stylized thunder bird form with geometric ridged detailing. The combination of heishi beads (small disc-shaped beads made from shell) and heishi coral beads with carved shell pendant is distinctive of Native American jewelry.
The second necklace is a distinctive green turquoise, a very specific variety that gets its green color from the presence of iron rather than copper. The irregular, natural shape of the green turquoise chips appeals to those who appreciate organic natural gemstone jewelry treasures for thousands of years by the indigenous people of the Southwestern United States.
