This Thunderbird Ring is hand-carved in sterling silver and signed by Kwakwaka'wakw artist Mike Sedgemore.
The Thunderbird Symbol represents power, protection, and strength. He is often seen as the most powerful of all spirits and can also transform into human form by opening his head up like a mask and taking his feathers off as if they were a mere blanket. Under his wings are lightning snakes, which he can use as a tool or weapon.
