A Reversible Navajo Inlay Pendant by Sheryl Martinez

This reversible Navajo inlay pendant offers two distinct looks in one unique piece, handcrafted by Sheryl Martinez (SM).

One side features white lab-created opal inlaid into a long, sleek sterling silver bar, with flashes of pinkish-red pinfire adding subtle color play. Flip it over to reveal a carefully arranged combination of picture jasper, tiger’s eye, lab-created opal, and onyx, showcasing a warm, earthy contrast.

Set on an 18-inch liquid silver bead chain, the 2-inch vertical drop creates an elegant, elongated look that feels effortlessly modern while embracing traditional Southwest artistry.

Please note: There are multiple areas of visible discoloration in the silver, adding to the character of the piece.
