Thunderbirds – Sterling Silver Pendant with Inlay
Spirit Messengers | Honoring the Thunderbird Legacy
The Thunderbird is a sacred being in First Nations stories — a powerful force that carries thunder in its wings, lightning in its eyes, and messages from the Spirit World to the Earth. It is a symbol of protection, transformation, and connection to the sky realms. Many Indigenous people across Turtle Island carry the Thunderbird name, passed down through bloodlines, ceremonies, and vision. This pendant honours not just the spirit of the Thunderbird, but all those who carry its name with pride, strength, and responsibility.
The design features a finely detailed Thunderbird with traditional cross-hatched linework, representing the movement of energy and spirit. This motif is a reflection of both cultural teachings and ancestral presence. The semi-precious stone inlay on the pendant roots this sky-being to the Earth — bridging the realms above and below, just as the Thunderbird does.
This piece also carries personal meaning, created in tribute to our grandmother, Lady of the Thunderbirds — a matriarch, a knowledge keeper, and a survivor whose teachings continue to ripple through generations.
