This listing features a vintage Navajo Squash Blossom Necklace handcrafted from Sterling Silver and Turquoise.

NOTE: Please view all 21 photos…last 3 photos show the necklace on a 5’8” tall, women’s size 4 model.

This vintage squash was handcrafted at the highest level of craftsmanship by skilled Navajo Silversmith, Richard S. Begay. It’s a very VERY nice piece, made with a strong heavy gauge silver giving it a solid weight of 202 grams. The Naja features a semi-free form Kingman stone dangling from the center. The stone has a rich blue color with signature black matrixes and a polished finish. The crescent shaped Naja is made with a wide graduating shank, adorned with stampings, and a smaller shank applied on top. It’s a simple yet, unique Naja with a solid and weighty feel.

There are 20 blossoms, 10 on each side, made from 2 seamless pearls fused together with triple fluted petals spraying out of one. They’re all in excellent condition and made to perfection! The silver work is truly at another level.

The pearls are free from dents and strung on a sturdy soldered link chain with the original hook and eye clasp at each end.

A sterling stamp is present on the back of the Naja along with stamped initials RB. The silver was tested and we guarantee its purity of .925 sterling.

This beautifully crafted squash will be a prized addition to any collection of Navajo jewelry. It’s great for daily wear and the link chain allows it to lay perfectly over the chest. Add this tangible piece to your collection and wear it with pride……you deserve it!!
