The exquisite stamp work on this butterfly pin mimics the wings of a real butterfly. The unknown Navajo artist has used a variety of stamps to form life-like wings. An oval piece of natural turquoise sits between the wings and is set upon a sterling cylinder. At the top of the cylinder, the artist has stamped a friendly face, adding a human dimension to the Southwest Indian Jewelry pin. As a final touch, long strands of silver compose a pair of long antennae.  It is a beautifully crafted piece, a great addition to anyone who wants to add a fine piece of mid-century Navajo stamped jewelry to their collection.
