RARE ELLEN QUANDELACY ZUNI 3-STRAND 81-FETISH NECKLACE


Powered by Image Logik Hosting Technology. Click to learn more.

Offered for sale is an incredible, rare piece of Zuni jewelry from the renowned carver, Ellen Quandelacy. Our seller, the sole owner, purchased this 3-strand, 81-fetish / heishi bead necklace from the Blackbird Trading Company. At the time, this gallery was located in Michigan. It is now operating in Cortez, Colorado with the same owner who signed the card accompanying the necklace.

This museum-quality necklace has 3 graduating-length strands (12", 13", and 14") and 81 individual hand-carved animal fetishes. Each strand has 27 fetishes. The outer strand has a large fetish at the bottom of a bird with outstretched wings, carved from turquoise. This fetish measures 1-3/8" long and 1-1/2" wide. The smaller fetishes are carved from turquoise, coral, shells, and appear to include birds, turtles, foxes, and other small animals. The stones were chosen for color and other qualities to closely match the animals they represent. The work is signed 'E Q Zuni' on the clasp. It is in excellent condition; we saw no damage to any of the fetishes.

Our seller recently contacted the gallery owner, who distinctly remembered acquiring this necklace directly from Ellen Quandelacy when she visited the store with her friend, Bonnie Quam. The gallery owner advised our seller that this was Ellen Quandelacy's last work before she passed away. The original certificate of authenticity from the gallery is included.

Note: Domestic shipping on this item is FREE, including insurance. Signature will be required.

Please see the photos for more details. Thanks for looking!!
