Raven Feather hand carved Sterling silver pendant

Hand carved sterling silver Raven feather Pendant #413. I always picture Raven in some kind of action so I shaped the back of his neck to be a Chilkat dance robe. This raven may be flying, dancing, telling a story, or resting between dances at a big Potlatch. I grew up with the ravens and used to talk to them a lot, my vocal equipment only allows me to make a few of the sound they can make, and I often felt that they would talk to me for a while, then decided I either had a speech impediment or didn’t have anything interesting to say and would fly off. One of the joys of living here in the winter is the ravens have returned from the north and I get to hear them all winter. I have included pictures of two other things that I made one is a small mask, too small to wear, and the other is an engraved steel dagger named “Hungry Raven” I named it that when I cut my finger on it while I was assembling the different parts. It wanted blood, and got it! $175.00 $5.00 shipping
