Created by the wonderfully talented Zuni artists Chad Quandelacy (of the famous Quandelacy family of fetish carvers) and Val Comosona, this finely detailed fetish style pendant/pin depicts two side-by-side Corn Maidens that were carved into a beautiful piece of purple & white spiny oyster shell. The corn maidens are adorned with inlaid pieces of turquoise and red coral plus black symbols depicting crosses and dragonflies.

The base, made of sterling silver, has a bale for a narrow necklace and a pin (with a safety clasp) should you wish to wear it on a shirt, sweater or jacket. The back is marked Zuni and has the names of both artists.

Weighing in at 15 grams on our postage scale the pendant/pin measures 1+7/8" long and 1+1/4" wide.
