The Anasazi were the ancient ancestors of many Southwestern Native American Indians including the Zuni, Acoma, Peublo, Hopi and maybe even some Navajo peoples. Known as "The Ancient One's," they built and lived in picturesque pueblo cliff dwellings seen as ruins today throughout the American Southwest.
These ancient people were highly proficient in thier clayworks and pottery
techniques, as evidenced by the many fragments of thier work left scattered
in Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, Utah and other area's
Many people believe that when a person creates somthing, they
put a bit of thier spirit into that item. Thier thoughts, hopes, dreams, strength's,
"medicine powers". . . a bit of who they are is sort of recorded within the item
while they are creating it.
It is documented by experts in Native American artifacts that later tribes
often reused found items from ancient times. Arrowheads were often
re-knapped by later tribes, ect.
These genuine ancient black on red Anasazi pottery shards are
"recycled" to be worn as modern adornment along with
genuine carnelian and snowflake obsidian semi-precious gemstone beads.
What a great way to honor the ancient one's who walked this land
creating and useing this pottery as long as 1200-1500 years ago;
by wearing thier handmade, utilitarian pottery
as beautiful, artful jewelry.
Note as each shard is unique, so is the wrap required to hold each shard. I selected the shards due to similar pattern, color, size or shape. They are not necessarily from the same pot or same generation.
Each earring is a one-of-a-kind hand crafted peice, partly created by myself,
mostly created by ancient American Indians and the natural forces of
time and the universe.
These handcrafted artisan earrings are 2 3/4" long
from top of earwire.
Perhaps you too will feel the spirit of the Ancient One's
as you touch a peice of the past.
These pottery shards were gathered as surface finds on private
property in Arizona, and collected within state and federal laws.
They were not part of any excavation or exploitation of ruins,
and were not dug from any grave site.
Notice the interesting "sandwiching" of layers on the one shard.

NOTE AS PER SHIPPING COSTS;
The postal service charges for weight and size
of package, and distance that is is traveling.
Check your shipping costs BEFORE bidding.
If you have any questions regarding
shipping costs, ASK before bidding.
Do not bicker with me over shipping
charges after you win an auction.
If you buy multiple items from me, Request a
total BEFORE paying, and then wait for my reply.
You will not get poor feedback from me if I ask
you to wait for a total. If you rush to pay before
asking for combined shipping, or if you pay for
each item seperatly, then that is what you will
pay, no if's, ands or buts. It's a lot of trouble to
"untangle and undo" and they never seem to
come out right. Depending on how I would
have to tackle it, paypal may collect a fee from
you for the money sent back to your account
I offer optional insurance on items
that sell for $25.00 or more.
If the item is fragile, or of substantial cost,
I may require it to be insured for shipping.
I do pack with considerable care. Rarely do
I have a problem with the U.S. Postal Service.
BUT REMEMBER . . . if you choose not to accept
the optional postal insurance, know that I am not
responsible for loss or damage due to mis-handling
by a reckless postal employee. I am very honest,
and I DO send your items within 2 days of
receiving cleared payment. But again, I am
not responsible for theft due to someone
looking for cash or valuables in the mail.
Feedback
As you can see from my feedback, rarely do
I have problems with my e-bay transactions.
However, sometimes things happen beyond
my control. Or just due to plain ol' honest
human error. Rather than leaving me
neutral or negative feedback, I'd like a
chance to earn your positive feedback.
And of course I'll leave positive feedback for
you in return. PLEASE contact me if something
is not right with your purchase, shipping,
transaction, item, ect. If I don't know there's
a problem, I can't fix it. If I'm able to correct
it for you, I'd appreciate the positive feedback.
