Originally purchased from Zuni Mt Trading this "Wind Maiden" is created from Tiffany stone in Matrix. This stone was discovered in 1969 at Spor Mt. in Juab county, Utah and mined for its beryllium content, but the mining are has since been closed to collectors. Other names for the stone are Bertrandite, Ice Cream opal, opalite and opalized fluorite. Its matrix consists mostly of dolomites and common opal. The purple of the flourite is in the base of the carving and the dolomite/opal is above that layer.


The eyes and mouth are inlaid of turquoise and the her long flowing hair is blowing in the breeze. The fetish is signed.
