Sterling Silver Zia Sun Pendant Necklace

Inspired by the distinctive imagery of the Desert Southwest, this sterling silver necklace features a beautifully crafted Zia sun pendant. The double-sided design incorporates open, cutaway spaces between the sun's rays and central circle, creating a delicate, airy appearance.

The pendant hangs from an 18-inch sterling silver chain finished with a spring-ring clasp.

The Meaning Behind the Symbol

The Zia sun symbol is a sacred cultural emblem of the Zia Pueblo people of New Mexico. Its design reflects important aspects of Zia Pueblo traditions and beliefs, including the significance of the number four.

Although the symbol is widely recognized through its appearance on the New Mexico state flag, its origins and cultural significance belong to the Zia Pueblo people.

We acknowledge and respect the Zia Pueblo as the cultural source of this meaningful design.
