This Zuni pin is remarkable. Its design is whimsical and happy, the size is amazing and rarely seen, and it has survived the years in excellent condition. It probably shows the collaboration of Zuni and Navajo artists during the C G Wallace period (1919-1960s), when his support of the artists generated creative and quality jewelry at Zuni.
