Native American stone inlay buffalo red metal threaded barrel necklace

Native American stone inlay buffalo red metal threaded barrel necklace Love the uniqueness of this necklace! Features a multi stone inlay buffalo with broken arrow. Beyond its practical value (meat/hide), the buffalo was also revered for its spiritual significance. Many Native American tribes saw the buffalo as a symbol of abundance, not just in terms of physical resources but also of emotional and spiritual wealth. They believed that the buffalo possessed a powerful spirit that could protect and guide them. Through rituals and ceremonies, they sought to connect with this spiritual power and draw strength from it. The work is fascinating, if you look close enough you can see lines where the stones connected. Hangs from a lovely red metal rounded chain with really nice hidden locking threaded barrel clasp...chain sort of reminds me of a bicycle lock. Hangs like a 16 inch necklace.
