Description
1" 1/8 L x 1" 1/8 W 6 grams Sterling Silver & Turquoise Sleeping Beauty Turquoise This Zuni needlepoint sterling silver turquoise pin pendant brooch showcases the meticulous craftsmanship of Zuni artisans. Needlepoint, a distinctive Zuni technique, involves shaping turquoise into delicate slivers resembling the eye of a needle. These stones are carefully set into a circular silver pattern, often evoking a sunburst or a floral motif, which is both a display of the jeweler's skill and a homage to cultural motifs. This piece likely features the revered Sleeping Beauty turquoise, known for its vibrant sky-blue hue and minimal veining. Such a brooch can be worn as an elegant accent on a lapel or transformed into a statement necklace pendant, reflecting the rich heritage and artistry of the Zuni Pueblo. The value and collectibility of these pieces depend on their age, craftsmanship, and the renown of the artisan. C12
