New Mexico Chile Ornament

This charming Chile ornament is fun and decorative. It displays the Zia Sun symbol which has deep meaning in its design.   The Zia sun sign represents: The four cardinal directions (north, south, east and west), each season of the year (spring, summer, autumn and winter), the four periods of each day (morning, noon, evening and night), and the four seasons of life (childhood, youth, middle years and old age). These four elements are tied together by a circle of life that has no beginning and no end. 5" long from stem to tip of chile. 1.5" wide across Zia symbol.
