Description
This exquisite necklace and earring set by Leagus Ahiyite exemplifies classic Zuni inlay craftsmanship with vibrant multi-stone artistry in sterling silver.

The wings and body are delicately detailed, showcasing Ahiyite’s precision and expertise. Complementary inlay segments extend along the necklace, each perfectly matched and integrated into a fine silver link chain. The matching post earrings echo the Thunderbird’s geometric form and vivid palette, creating a harmonious and wearable set.
