Kewa Puebloan Artisan- WARREN NIETO- Mosaic Inlaid -Kingman Turquoise- Spiny Oyster Accent Pueblo Pendant-5 mm 18" Brown Leather Necklace-UNISEX
UNISEX!
Everything Warren makes,he makes with his Pueblo-Anasazi ancestral roots in mind.You might say that Warren is one who lives & breathes his culture & there's not a time where he doesn't incorporate a symbol(s) somewhere within his art that has some kind of spiritual-heavenly meaning.. I have to admit that out of all the Puebloan people I know, he's one who loves sharing his culture with you & how he proudly incorporates it in his art.You can really get a sense of the history of the Kewa people every time you talk with him..

THE NECKLACE
Connected to a durable 5 mm round braided brown leather single strand, hangs the hand made mosaic inlaid square pendant, that is made with cuts of bright blue Kingman turquoise & a cut of orange Spiny Oyster shell used for an accent color.
The pendant connects to the leather by way of a sterling wire & is light enough of a gauge that can be rounded out more to accommodate something larger (Or different) if you like. If you'd like to change out the leather for maybe a sterling beaded necklace or just a small millimeter single strand turquoise beaded necklace, this could be done. However,I think the leather gives this a more 'western touch' that will compliment a casual southwestern look! This will look great with some ripped denim & boots & would make a great gift for ANY age, male or female!
