Pendant made from Anasazi pottery shard

If you ever break a piece of pottery, think twice before throwing it away. Among the numerous artifacts found in North America, pottery shards have revealed a tremendous amount of clues regarding the people and cultures that created them. One particular group known as the Anasazi – translated as the “ancient ones” – were accomplished potters. Today, even the remnants of their pots have become valuable collectibles.

This ancient pot shard is carefully set with sterling silver

This week’s New Arrival features an Anasazi pottery shard that has been cleverly crafted into a wearable pendant. Created over a millennium ago this piece lets us know the Anasazi placed a premium on beauty as well as function. Their bold, geometric black and white designs have never really gone out of style. While this piece makes an up-to-the-minute fashion statement, it also confidently brings us to the intersection where ancient meets modern.
