Striking vintage sterling silver owl pin, beautifully executed with classic Southwestern-style stone inlay. This piece features a bold, graphic owl motif with rich blue lapis lazuli wings, vibrant turquoise mosaic body, green stone (likely malachite) head, and red coral eyes, all framed in hand-laid sterling silver channels.
The reverse shows a solid sterling back with a secure pin mechanism and stamped “975”, indicating high-grade silver. Substantial for its size and well-balanced, this piece wears equally well as a statement brooch or could easily be adapted as a pendant.
A timeless design with strong mid-century to late-20th-century Southwestern or artisan studio vibes—eye-catching, collectible, and unmistakably handcrafted.
