Description
 
A beautiful inlaid Roadrunner bird pin by well-known Zuni artist Dennis Edaakie. Often working with his wife Nancy, their exquisite workmanship is considered among the best stone-to-stone inlay of all time. Dennis and Nancy are most well-known for their beautiful bird images, which they began producing in the early 60's. This being one of the earlier pieces by Dennis, the detail and over all look is somewhat different than his more recent work. Hallmarked Dennis E.

This outstanding pin features a beautiful Roadrunner with the central image inlaid with white shell, brown shell. Accents of a rainbow abalone shell, coral and yellow lip shell cactus, framed with an overlay design. All stones are precisely set in a silver background. There is a deep patina on the entire pin. The pin measures 2 1/4" diameter. We offer a pin/pendant, silver conversion piece upon request.
