Sun-face and sunburst designs are the favorite motifs of Zuni jewelry makers Tony and Ola Eriacho. The sun face is highly stylized, with geometric eyes and mouth. The sunburst has rays of silver or gold emanating from the face. Some of the faces are so small that jet dust is used to make the mouth.
