Navajo/Hopi Sterling Silver Parrot Symbol Pendant (#53)
$290.00
Navajo Jewelry 1" x 2 1/4"
This pendant came to us through and estate and we were more than happy to see it. We have been arguing its origin for some time now and have narrowed our hypothesis to Hopi, with a Navajo twist. The design work is Hopi with the parrot and kiva step design, but the texture seems more Navajo. At any rate, the pendent is extremely attractive and has no trouble standing out in either cultural arena.

Silversmith Work
When and how the Navajo acquired the art of working metals is unknown but there are reasons for supposing that it was introduced among them, or at least more developed and improved upon by them, since the time they have occupied their present country?
