This incredibly unique ring was recently given to me by a woman now in her 80’s who owned an art gallery in Taos back in the 1970s. It is signed by the artist “Nettie L” and based on the subject matter of the mudhead, I would suppose that Nettie might likely be Zuni or Hopi but I have not been able to find any information about an artist with this hallmark. Might any of you have an idea who she is/was? I wear this piece with great respect and pride in its cultural significance.
