This is a striking vintage Navajo Native American 925 sterling silver medium pendant with a waterbird design. This pendant measures approximately 1-9/16 inch tall by 1-1/16 inch wide. This pendant is inlaid with turquoise and red coral. We have been cleaning out our vault and have come across many of these vintage pieces. Water birds hold a profound significance in Native American culture, symbolizing spiritual connection, transformation, and healing. The legend of the water bird is a multifaceted narrative that varies among different tribes, embodying deep cultural beliefs and traditions.
