Necklace c. 20th century

This necklace, created by an anonymous artist in the 20th century, showcases the artistry of Native American craftsmanship. The necklace features a series of ceramic birds, each adorned with intricate black and white designs, strung on a black cord interspersed with turquoise beads. The birds, with their outstretched wings, create a visually dynamic pattern, evoking a sense of flight and movement. This necklace is currently housed in the Minneapolis Institute of Art.
