Redtail Necklace -- Dendritic Agate

I ride my horses to the Post Office in town from time to time and while riding this summer, I saw a red-tailed hawk flying with a snake in her fist.  Some kind of omen.  or just a hawk flying with her meal in her talons.  Either way, when I reached home I hopped in my studio and made a few sterling silver hawks -- sawed, overlaid with deep texture, carved and shaped until the details pop.  She's paired with a cut of dendritic agate and three of my sagebrush sprigs.  This is such a lovely narrative piece that speaks of wild open spaces and the steppe country I call home. 

All sterling silver with a bronze accent at the clasp.  My love is in the details.

Length:  About 19 inches in length with my s-clasp.
