This sterling silver pendant features a bear design with a centrally placed, large heart-shaped Kingman turquoise stone. The bear's body is textured and detailed with stamped designs, including a flower on its right shoulder, a flower above the leg and a textured surface on its entire body. Bear-themed pendants with a heartline, often represented as a line or an inlay of a stone from the mouth to the heart, are a significant symbol in some Native American traditions, representing the spirit, strength, and life force of the bear. The turquoise is set in a bezel and has a prominent matrix, which refers to the host rock visible as a web-like pattern in the stone. The pendant is marked "handmade" and “sterling”. Pendants of this style, particularly those with a heartline or "spirit bear" design, are often associated with Navajo or Zuni craftsmanship. The piece weighs approximately 8 grams. Approximate measurements are 1.37”L x 1.56”W x .28”D. The generous decorative bail measures 8gms. Please note that the 5mm desert pearls used in the photos are for illustrative purposes. I would like to add the stone on this pendant is absolutely gorgeous. It measures .50”W x .50”L.
