Splendor of the Southwest n01

I have always been fascinated by nature's canvases ... God's designs are indeed breathtaking. I saw this piece during our Southwest vacation … simply loved the spirituality of the first settlers of North America.

Silver is believed to mirror one’s soul.
Lapis Lazuli is one of the most sought after stones in use since man's history began. Its deep, celestial blue remains the symbol of royalty and honor, gods and power, spirit and vision. It is a universal symbol of wisdom and truth.
Turquoise, perhaps the oldest stone in man’s history, is the talisman of kings, shamans, and warriors. It is a stone of protection. For thousands of years, spanning all cultures, it is prized as a symbol of wisdom, nobility and the power of immortality.

This is one-of-a-kind piece.
