This beautiful 1900 classic squash blossom necklace offers early crafting of ingot silver. The sound of the heavy beads and the feel of the silver are beyond compare. The center piece is a beautiful carinated naja, with a single turquoise stone and has wonderful hands at the end terminals. The blossoms appear to be variety of blossoms, beads and thickness of ingot. The overall piece is in excellent condition and was originally strung on very worn cloth string. It was restrung by Trader John Hill. Published in the Paula Baxter book, NAVAJO and PUEBLO JEWELRY DESIGN 1870-1945. Pg.150.

This amazing necklace is smaller than some, measuring 24" total length, including the 2 1/8" by 2 3/16" naja. Truly a gorgeous necklace on!
