A FAMILY HEIRLOOM
This beautiful pin is what is known as a grandmother cluster; legend has it that the center stone is the grandmother, and each outer ring represents her being surrounded by her children and grandchildren. This cluster pin was crafted by Zuni silversmith Judy Wallace and features a combination of snake eye and oval turquoise stones, sterling silver drops, silver half moons, and twist wire details. It’s absolutely stunning and the kind of statement piece that’s destined to become a beloved heirloom.

Judy Wallace (1950-; Zuni) Active since 1970s. Petit point. Shares the mark of her husband Vernon Wallace.
