Description

This brooch, in the shape of the mythological Thunderbird, is set with a large and rare dark turquoise stone. The Thunderbird holds significant symbolism for various Native American tribes and was even used as a signature in the Great Peace of Montreal, a 1701 peace treaty between the French, British and various Native American nations.

This remarkable piece, created by a Navajo silversmith in the mid-20th century, offers the versatility of being worn as both a pin and a pendant. By wearing it, you are not only wearing a beautiful piece of art, but also a symbol of Native American heritage and the historical significance of the Thunderbird.
