Calvin Begay, Pendant, Multi-Stone, Sterling Silver, Navajo, 2 3/4"

This striking Calvin Begay pendant is a true example of Navajo artistry, blending traditional symbolism with contemporary inlay design. Handcrafted in sterling silver, the pendant takes the form of a bear, a powerful Native symbol of strength, healing, and protection. It features a vibrant mosaic of Spiny Oyster Shell, Sleeping Beauty Turquoise, and deep Lapis Lazuli, each stone meticulously cut and inlaid to create bold geometric patterns. The warm orange tones of the Spiny Oyster contrast beautifully with the sky-blue turquoise and the midnight hues of lapis, resulting in a piece that is both eye-catching and meaningful. Known for his precision and innovative inlay work, Calvin Begay captures the spirit of the Southwest landscape in every detail. This pendant not only celebrates natural materials but also honors Navajo tradition and storytelling through design.
