Vintage Apache Gaan Crown Dancer Zuni Inlaid Multi Gemstone Sterling Silver Pin. A Zuni artisan meticulously handcrafted this magnificent multi-gemstone Apache Gan Crown Dancer in lustrous sterling silver. The figure is depicted with a vibrant mosaic of inlaid gemstones including turquoise, coral, mother of pearl, abalone and black onyx. He is dancing with one leg up and one arm up. He holds items in both hands. The dancer is wearing an ornate headdress with three sterling silver beads on top. This pin embraces a very rich cultural heritage. The overall height is 1-7/8" tall and the back is finished with a large pin back.

This superb old authentic Native American sterling silver and multi-gemstone Apache Gan Crown Dancer pin is in very good vintage condition, as shown in the photos. It has age-appropriate oxidation along with some very minor surface wear, cracks and chips. It has not been professionally cleaned so as not to compromise the beauty of the natural patina. Please see the photos as they are part of the description and to assess the condition. You can click on any photo to enlarge it for more details. Feel free to ask questions.
