Hopi Bird & Sun Face in Zuni Jewelry

Sei, a retired social and developmental psychology professor in Japan who collects Japanese art and objects and Zuni fetishes and antique mosaic jewelry, details the origins and contemporary interpretations of the staple designs of Sun Face and Thunderbird/Hopi Bird made into jewelry mainly from the 1930s through the 1960s by 33 artists, including Harry Deutsawe and Raphael Homer (who have not been discussed elsewhere). He illustrates the variations in their pieces, their styles, and materials, and shows color photos of pins, bracelets, bolo ties, and other ornaments.
