Zuni lapidary artisans are masters at cutting turquoise precisely to fit between silver bars in a mosaic style. The shape of the pin has been noted as representing a pair of hummingbirds. The shape is known internationally and has many names but we will stick with the Zuni name.
It is truly amazing that a lapidary artisan could work in such precise detail. Each stone fits to perfection.
