Navajo Overlaid Silver Hair Barrette
This Navajo Overlaid Silver Hair Barrette by Thomas Begay features traditional water patterns that are often seen on Hopi pottery. The curled waves and rain images are important symbols of pueblo life and were handmade using two sheets of German Silver. Cut out and hammered, the metal was finished with etching and a satin buffing. Measuring 3-1/8" long and 5/8" wide, it's securely mounted to a spring clip and is hallmarked. Wear your hair up or down this Navajo Overlaid Silver Hair Barrette adds the finishing touch!
Individually handmade, designs may vary slightly.
Thomas (1955- ) was born in Many Farms, AZ. He learned the traditional style from his father but eventually switched over to Hopi overlay, a style that he has loved for as long as could remember. His wife of more than 40 years, Ilene (1948- ) sometimes helps him with the stamping.
