Superb Unique Best Zuni Horace Iule Signed Cast Pendant Enhancer Coral Turquoise For Sale

Welcome!

WHAT IS GREAT ABOUT IT: Horace Iule was one of the great early Zuni master silversmiths who did creative prize winning work most often with cast elements. When a piece is cast the first one is very deeply incised and the design is most clear. This is an example of a first level casting with wonderfully clear and precise incisions and it also has fabulously beautiful set stones. It is a one of a kind, a unique work of art. The great advantage is that the bail is open so it is not only a pendant but also an enhancer, and it can be attached to most any necklace that isn't graduated: whether Navajo pearls, or all silver beads, or turquoise or coral necklaces, it will be a stunning addition to any necklace. It's breathtakingly beautiful. It's of the quality that won him first prizes in Intertribal Ceremonial.
