Zuni Spiny Oyster Cluster Pendant in Sterling Silver
This bold handcrafted Zuni pendant features a striking grid-style cluster of rich orange spiny oyster shell set in sterling silver. The stonework is arranged in meticulously carved, raised squares that give the piece dimension and texture, framed by an ornate traditional Zuni silver design with fan and feather-like sculpting. The hinged bail adds movement and an elevated artisan touch.
Spiny oyster shell is cherished in Southwestern jewelry for its vibrant warmth, protective energy, and connection to creativity and life force. Paired with classic Zuni silverwork, this pendant carries both cultural artistry and strong visual presence.
