Animal: Dragonfly, Material: Black Lip Mother-Of-Pearl Shell
This offering is sold.

Zooming over watery meadows, grasslands and our backyards, dazzling Dragonflies are vital predatory insects who consume deadly mosquitos. Aquatic dragonfly nymphs begin their life in water and are water-quality indicators. Danette Laate's iridescent black lip mother-of-pearl shell insect has turquoise eyes. Bodily inlays are from turquoise too. Lovely etching details this approximately 1 5/8" long, 1 1/4" wide and 1/4" tall friend. Many Zunis believe a dragonfly is a messenger who carries prayers.
