Zuni Snake Charm Sterling Silver | Southwestern Jewelry | Rattlesnake Jewelry | Made in USA

The Zuni Snake — coiled and ready, with every scale rendered in .925 sterling silver, Made in USA. This 3-gram charm measures 3/4" x 3/4", capturing the serpent in a compact spiral of three-dimensional detail through lost-wax casting.

Molten silver at over 1,640 degrees fills the mold with enough force to capture individual scales, the rattle, and the characteristic Zuni-style geometric patterns. Hand-finishing through progressive polishing stages completes each piece.

In Zuni tradition, the snake is associated with water, lightning, and the life-giving power of rain. Snakes appear in pottery, fetish carvings, and silverwork as symbols of transformation and renewal.

An excellent choice for reptile enthusiasts, Southwestern art collectors, or anyone drawn to symbols of transformation. Sterling silver jump ring included and attached.
