Fred Peshlakai. Four Winds pin.
Iconic within the artists output, this design is a wonderful example of Peshlakai’s art. The Four Winds symbols navigating the pins perimeter echo from the deeply rooted traditional symbols within sand paintings and then textiles created by Dine artisans for generations. Eagle tails and the twisted wires of lightning surround the center element which represents the individuals place in the cosmos. Sterling and Lone Mountain turquoise. Extraordinary.
Measures: 3.25” w. x 2.25” h. Weighs: 30 grams.
Condition is excellent. Very tight matrix related crack in the top center stone as shown.
