From Wright’s Indian Art: Hummingbirds are welcomed by Native tribes because they help to propagate plants and crops, as well as for their delightful beauty and grace.⠀ ⠀ Here, we see a minuscule silver hummer, wings spread for balance, tail up, dipping its long beak into the heart of a wild rose, which is centered with a heavenly blue aquamarine.⠀ ⠀ The bird is appropriately tiny; the petals of the rose, and the little roses snuggled beneath it, are each beautifully shaped and incised.⠀ ⠀ The ingenious skill of the jeweler (who has made his name as a painter!) continues, as the slender stems of the flowers transform into the shank of the ring.⠀ ⠀ Each element of this uncommon and enchanting ring is meticulously fashioned.⠀ ⠀ The sparkling, pale blue aquamarine is as delicate as the silverwork and the overall design. It seems like a drop of water, reflecting the sky above.⠀ ⠀ Water is the most precious resource in the high desert, so the whole design of this ravishing ring is not only exceptionally beautiful, it sends a message of good luck.⠀ ⠀ And your good luck is that the artist is young, at the dawn of his multi-talented career, so the price is as modest, as the ting is gorgeous.⠀ ⠀ Artist: Jacob Lee Follow them on Instagram at @wrightsindianart
