This beautifully crafted Squash Blossom
necklace is hand crafted Navajo work. Circa: 1940's into early 50's. It is a stunning necklace with heavy 17mm saucer beads and a gorgeous naja with Blue Gem turquoise. Very fine work!! Heavier
gauge silver was used on the handcrafted beads and time was taken to smooth them out to a
beautiful finish. The Naja has fine twist wire and is nicely finished. A wonderful smooth patina graces the entire necklace.
This necklace dated to the late 1940's into the early 50's
and does not have a maker's mark--being of a time when such things were not
commonly done. The overall condition is excellent.
The Naja measures 2 1/2" tall by 2 3/4" wide. The
necklace measures 22" long. Weight is 207 grams.
