What is Petit Point?

There are two similar techniques of using very small pieces of stone to decorate a piece and they are often confused.

Petit Point is comprised of long , narrow teardrop-shaped stones.

Needle Point is comprised of straight, long, narrow stones that are pointed on both ends.

The God's Eye, often at the center of the Sunface, is traditionally made of turquoise, jet, Mother of Pearl, and coral. It represents the all-seeing.

Return Policy

  The Colorado Collection

This ring is from a collection of Native American pawn rings we purchased from a couple who had a store in the 1970's in southern Colorado. For 20 years they purchased rings during trips to Gallup and Zuni, New Mexico. After closing their store in the late 1990's, they continued making two or three trips a year to New Mexico to add to their inventory and also traveled around to Native American shows and Pow Wows. The years finally caught up with them and they decided to retire so their inventory went up for sale and we were fortunate to purchase some of it.
