Joe Eby Bird Keychain

.925 sterling silver, turquoise, and leather compose a compact bird keychain. The object pairs silver and a turquoise accent with a leather loop that secures keys while remaining visually spare. It is made in San Antonio, TX by the creative team of Joe and Gina Eby: Joe was raised on the Navajo Nation and trained in Navajo style in Gallup, NM, and Gina is of Cherokee descent. The piece references Navajo stylistic traditions and carries its maker story plainly through material and form.
