Rare Vintage Zuni JC USA Sterling MOP Mosaic Inlay Whimsical Unicorn Hand-Engraved Pendant AS IS

Approximate measurements:

Length: 1.25 inches

Width: .75 inches

Estate sale find

Preowned

The unicorn horn tip appears to be missing/broken off, as shown in pictures (last picture is a close up). The pendant has normal darkened patina and light surface scratches on the silver, as shown.

The pendant can be worn as is, or a lapidist/restoration specialist who works with stones should be able to repair it, if necessary.

The back is engraved: JC Zuni USA, as shown in pictures.

Per a little research (I am not an expert), this appears to be a vintage hand-scribed/engraved/signed Zuni artist John Cly (JC) pop-culture inlay pendant piece.

The pendant is not marked sterling/925, however, it is not magnetic. To the best of my research and knowledge, vintage Zuni inlay pieces were set in sterling silver but were not marked.

The missing horn tip is a testament to its vintage journey and doesn’t diminish its absolute uniqueness!
