Hawk Moon Pendant
Vernon Joseph White
$1,600.00 CADArgillite, Abalone Shell, Sterling Silver, Mastodon ivory
The Hawk takes its place in the supernatural spiritual world, inspiring unique designs for masks, rattles and jewelry. For the Haida Nation, it was used to represent the Thunderbird. Often associated with the Sun, the Hawk can be distinguished by its curled beak which curves to meet the tip of the lower jaw.
When the Raven brought light to the world, some versions of the legend say that it was the Hawk who made the Raven drop the box so it opened, releasing the Sun, Moon and Stars into the Universe.

Supernatural Hummingbird Pendant
David Neel
$650.00 CADSterling silver, 14K Yellow Gold, Engraved
The hummingbird has become an increasingly prominent figure in Pacific Northwest Coast Indigenous art over the last few decades. Considered to be a whimsical creature, this tiny bird brings good luck and happiness to all who come across it.
In many of the oral traditions on the Pacific Northwest Coast, the hummingbird plays the role of a powerful spirit helper, who is often associated with healing. It is believed that, in ancient times, all animals and people possessed the ability to transform one into the other and back again. In fact, this stunning Supernatural Hummingbird Pendant was inspired by a story in which The Transformer turned himself into a hummingbird so that he could fly away and escape his foe. Transformations like these often play a key role in many of the legends found throughout the Northwest Coast.
Beyond its role in oral tradition, the hummingbird serves as a sub-crest for some Haida clans, and is an important symbol of healing, peace, and love.
