Screech Owl Kachina Charm Sterling Silver | Native American | Inspired Jewelry | Made in USA
At 2.7 grams of solid .925 sterling silver, this Screech Owl Kachina charm is Made in USA and built to last a lifetime.
Molten sterling silver is poured at over 1,640 degrees Fahrenheit while a centrifugal caster generates roughly 50 G's of force to fill every fine detail. Each charm then goes through hours of hand-finishing -- rough filing, tripoli compound, rouge polish, and a final buff.
The Screech Owl Kachina serves as a disciplinary figure in Hopi ceremonial life, known for enforcing proper behavior during rituals. Despite the stern role, the Screech Owl is a protector at heart, ensuring that traditions are respected and observed. This charm renders the figure's distinctive owl-like headdress in three-dimensional detail, with a sterling silver jump ring attached.
Whether for a Southwest art collector's birthday, a housewarming gift, or a cultural studies student's keepsake, this charm carries meaning beyond its size. Add it to a Southwestern-themed charm bracelet, or wear it alone on a silver chain as a conversation piece.
