The Hummingbird design of the Quandelacy family is distinctive. The design features a combination of fine silverwork used to create interwoven channels in which precisely shaped stones are inlaid. The effect is a sort of raised inlay. The Hummingbird Design of the Quandelacy Family of Zuni Pueblo is very distinctive.

Ellen Quandelacy was the mother of Dickie Quandelacy. She was the first to use this design and taught Dickie. He in turn taught his wife, Amy. Although they no longer work together, the design has been used by both and other members of the family.
