Navajo Blanket Pony Pendant

Artist: Barbara Tomasko Quimby

After receiving a degree from the Boston Museum School of Fine Art, New Englander Barbara Tomasko Quimby moved to Wagon Mound, New Mexico, where she fell in love with the native cultures and people of the West. Admiring the artistry displayed by Navajo women weaving fabulous blankets with thread on loom, she was moved to create this tribute, incorporating the colour and design "of day and night, of deserts flat and mountain height".

Made of metal and hand-crafted enamel, with hand set Austrian crystals. Measures 4cm high and includes a braided leather cord.

Price: $25 incl. GST
