Aaron Anderson, Pendant, Sonoran Gold Turquoise, Navajo Handmade, 2 1/4"
Description
Aaron Anderson’s artistry shines in this dynamic Navajo handmade pendant, featuring a bold and textured sterling silver horned toad design. Revered in Navajo culture as a symbol of protection and good fortune, the horned toad is meticulously rendered with Anderson’s signature tufa cast technique, lending a rich, rugged texture to the piece. Crowning this spirited form is a vibrant round cabochon of Sonoran Gold Turquoise, known for its brilliant blue-green hues and earthy matrix, perfectly complementing the silverwork. The contrast between the polished turquoise and the rugged silver creates a striking visual balance that’s both traditional and contemporary. This pendant is a testament to the Navajo reverence for nature and the artist's deep connection to his heritage.
