The hand-strung strand features a curated "bead soup" composition, blending natural cream shell heishi beads, terracotta glass seed beads, and contrasting pale lavender and sage-green disc spacers. This sophisticated, earthy arrangement gracefully transitions to a stacked sterling silver pendant assembly featuring a smooth, polished oval cabochon-cut jasper stone displaying naturally striated ribbons of pastel purple, lilac, soft rose, and mineral gray matrix lines.The focal drop is anchored by a genuine, circulating 1936 United States Buffalo Nickel numismatic coin artifact, featuring an oxidized aged patina that elegantly sharpens the original historical relief details of the Native American profile on the obverse and the American bison on the reverse. The back of the precious metal setting features a stamped signature pictograph bird hallmark, certifying its designer origin from the renowned jewelry house Peyote Bird Designs—a frequent staple of the elevated Sundance Catalog lifestyle.

Excellent used condition. Appears virtually new with all hand-strung beads tightly secured on the original thread cord with zero stretching or fraying. The sterling silver hardware retains a bright, lustrous polish, and the historic 1930s coinage shows sharp design integrity with no major chips or structural gouges.
