William Spratling

Hummingbird Necklace

$2,000.00

One of William Spratling’s most refined authorized replicas, the Hummingbird Necklace draws from both natural symbolism and Mesoamerican materials. The pendant features an elegant jade carving shaped into the abstracted form of a hummingbird mid-flight—its elongated beak and open wings harmonizing in silver contours. The rich, cool tone of the jade is framed by a bold sterling silver design that reflects Spratling’s legacy of geometric clarity and organic balance. Suspended on a sterling silver tubular chain, the necklace measures 16 inches in length and rests smoothly against the collarbone. The 3½ by 3-inch pendant brings visual weight and movement without overpowering. Subtle patina and clean solder work showcase the fine silversmithing Taxco is known for. The clasp bears the Spratling seal, confirming its authenticity and origin.
