In Coast Salish carving traditions, the eagle represents vision, awareness, and connection between worlds.
It moves above, seeing what cannot always be seen from below.
It carries perspective, clarity, and truth.
The eagle does not rush.
It observes.
It knows when to move and when to remain still.
Here, the eagle is centered within a circular form.
A symbol of continuity.
Of cycles that continue, whether seen or unseen.
The surrounding carved elements hold that movement.
Flowing around the center, creating balance between stillness and motion.
Copper carries grounding and warmth.
A connection to the physical world and what holds us steady.
Silver reflects clarity and awareness.
A quiet brightness that mirrors the eagle’s perspective.
Each line is carved by hand, following traditional Coast Salish formline principles.
Giving structure, direction, and meaning beyond surface detail.
This pendant carries the energy of clarity, protection, and seeing with intention.
