Vintage Navajo Sterling Silver Squash Blossom Necklace with Super Blue Turquoise – 22″

Product Description:
This stunning vintage Navajo squash blossom necklace showcases vivid, natural super blue turquoise stones in bold, hand-crafted settings. The necklace measures 22 inches in length and features ten traditional squash blossoms, each set with a bezel-set turquoise cabochon surrounded by twisted wire detailing and silver leaf-like petals.

The centerpiece naja features seven turquoise stones, echoing the same design motifs, with strong silverwork and a soft patina that speaks to its age. Each turquoise stone has a unique shape and matrix, giving the necklace unmistakable authenticity and character.
