Vintage Zuni-Style Bluebird Inlay Brooch

This is an oval-shaped vintage brooch featuring a stylized bluebird, likely inspired by Zuni Pueblo lapidary art. The central focal point is a mother-of-pearl base with a distinctive iridescence and milky white luster. Inset into this base is a multi-stone inlay depicting a bright blue bird perched on a branch with red berries and blue leaves. The bird is likely formed from turquoise or blue-colored resin, accented with a small red throat patch. The berries appear to be coral or oxblood red resin. The entire assembly is held within a serrated bezel and framed by a decorative silver-tone rope or twisted wire border. The metal likely consists of sterling silver or a silver-plated base metal, showing light surface oxidation and a gentle patina consistent with mid-centry age (circa 1950s-1970s). The craftsmanship is characteristic of Fred Harvey era or post-war tourist trade jewelry, blending traditional themes with commercial appeal. No visible maker's marks are present on the face; however, the symmetry and clean lines suggest a skilled hand. The condition appears excellent with no missing inlay pieces or significant chips to the mother-of-pearl.
