Bow-annie

A magpie carved of black marble is an elegant and symbolic creation, full of contrast and spiritual depth. Calvert has shaped the bird with sleek, flowing lines that capture its alert stance and clever nature. The polished black marble gives the carving a deep, reflective surface, evoking the intelligence and mystery often associated with the magpie. Across its wings, inlaid turquoise adds brilliant bands of sky-blue color, standing out vividly against the dark stone. These turquoise inlays symbolize life, water, and protection—elements that bring harmony and vitality to the piece. The magpie’s eyes are also inlaid with turquoise, giving the bird a vivid, watchful gaze that seems both wise and spirited. In Zuni symbolism, turquoise represents blessings, connection to the sky and water, and a sense of balance between the physical and spiritual worlds.
