Description
Turquoise, coral, jet, malachite, pink mussel shell and golden mother of pearl combine with sterling silver to create this wonderful hummingbird pendant by Zuni silversmith Tamara Pinto. Turquoise, coral, and jet make up the head of the bird, while a sterling beak protrudes outward from the front of the face. It’s wings, extended upward, are inlaid with pink mussel shell and golden mother of pearl separated by wavy sterling bands, while the body features malachite and jet. The bird is finished along the tail feathers with turquoise and coral, and all stones are lightly etched to give the bird texture and dimension. 1 7/8″ long including bail x 1 1/2″ wide.
