This fun contemporary pin was bought directly from the artist at the Heard Museum Guild Indian Fair & Market in 2002. He named it "Cultivate". It does have the feel of rows of crops, along with the "bite" out of the top. Opposite the stones is a fun addition of swirling silver that reminds me of water.
