Huge brooch tiered with pale sea green and sky blue turquoise, edged with sterling loops and set with four embellished dangles in a design reminiscent of the wooden rattle (Chicahuastli) that marked the ancient rhythm of the dance. The rattle was used as a cane by the Fire God, and was an attribute of god, warriors and priests.
