21 Mother of Pearl panels with jet and coral accents. 22 Petit Point rays around the central sunface made up of Mother of Pearl, Coral and Jet.
Be sure to note that there is one tiny crack that can not be felt and can barely be seen. It is completely tight and secure but can be seen in certain light and angles if you are really looking for it.
There is a locking pin on the back as well as a loop so the piece can be used as a pendant. Comes with a 16" leather choker with sterling silver lobster claw clasp. | Paula says: " There is meticulous petit point and inlay in this huge, gorgeous work of art. It's just a wonderful one-of-a-kind piece. There is one flaw that lowers the price - a crack on one of the Mother of Pearl inlays near the 7 o'clock postion (see a close-up below)."

We recently purchased items from the personal Native American jewelry collection of a Lumbee-Cheraw woman. The Lumbee-Cheraw tribe is from North Carolina. She received these pieces from 1989-2002 as gifts for various accomplishments such as scholarship, graduation and promotions. Some pieces are from that era and some are from much earlier - the 1960s and 70s. She understood that all of the pieces were Native American made and were Sterling Silver. She provided us with a few artists' names. Others we recognized and researched using our experience and our Native American references. As always, we will tell you as much as we know for certain and suggest possible artists when the artist is unknown. Enjoy browsing this varied and beautiful group. |
