Beautiful Zia Sun pendants made from high-fire clay.
I created these pendants, carved them with the Zia sun glyphs, fired, then glazed and fired once again.
Threaded onto adjustable cords. The pendants measures approx. 1-1/8'' to 1-1/4" in diameter by 3/16" thick (30-35mm x 5mm).

About the Zia Pueblo Sun Symbol:
"Zia" means sun, and is also the name of the symbol. Today it is the sole symbol on the flag of the State of New Mexico, but the symbol is very old- it is found on pottery, art, and other artefacts of the Zia Pueblo tribes of New Mexico. The number four is sacred to the Zia Native Americans and this emblem embodies this number as the powers of nature- the sun, the four directions, seasons, and the ages of man.
