Heritage

This extraordinary piece exemplifies a national heritage of Native American people and the gems, elements, and minerals of this land. The "Chief" pendant was created by "BoneDust Oklahoma", using 10,000 year old mammoth ivory, buffalo, bull, and steer bone, as well as moose antler sheds. Saint Helena Jewelry created five spectacular layers of treasures to complete this one of a kind heirloom treasure. Hand carved antler and Kingman turquoise exude power. The turquoise nuggets and heshi beads, alongside a plethora of rock crystal, add elements of earth and nature. Dark horn beads present intensity. Navajo sterling beads along with other handmade beads add artistry and symmetry. The baroque pearls move into the water element, while the sterling clasp completes this necklace as a full circle. 
 
The Native American people we love and will never be forgotten. I am proud of my heritage, which includes that of the Cherokee tribe. We will continue to preserve the lagacy and life, of all.
