Zuni made pendant, with a beautiful mosaic inlaid silver - set with natural Coral and Mother of Pearl.
Coral is organic in nature, for Native Americans she is our Earth Mother, an alive being with a Consciousness of her own.The bearer of all Living beings she asks us to reconnect to our feeling bodies, to find Peace, Harmony and clarity, to travel on a path away from our ego and destructive misconceptions.
Mother of Pearl, also called nacre, is the inner layer of some shells. It is made by when the mollusk (the organism inhabiting the shell) makes crystals – this is an oversimplification, but think of it like an oyster making pearls – very similar. Mother-of-Pearl is said to stimulate intuition, sensitivity, imagination, and adaptability and help with clarity in decision making. Mother of Pearl stirs and awakens the primordial memory of your origin in the infinite ocean of divine love and stirs this memory in every cell of your physical body thereby producing an overall calming effect as it gently stirs the life energy of your cells. Like waves lapping the shore, this stirring is steady, relaxing, and rhythmical.
Mosaic Inlay is most commonly found within Zuni jewellery. Mosaic inlay features an array of stones from around the world. The Artisan will design the overall form of the piece of jewellery then individually cut each stone to perfectly fit next to the other stones within the piece. This precise method offers a huge impact on the aesthetics of any piece.
