Description: Wonderful vintage Native American, Navajo hand-crafted sterling silver genuine turquoise & pen shell heishi beaded necklace. This lovely necklace is MUCH NICER in reality than it appears in the eBay photos. The turquoise is VERY washed out in these pictures. It is a rich blue green with a lovely polish in reality. This fine necklace is 39” long and weighs 32.6 grams. The turquoise nuggets vary in size from approximately 8 mm to upwards of 15 mm. The vintage turquoise is lovely, rich blue-green American-mined material. The turquoise nuggets alternate with tan/brown pen shell heishi beads and the necklace is finished with sterling silver, Native American bench beads, cones and a traditional hook and eye clasp. This necklace is in very good vintage condition with no damage other than very minor age appropriate surface wear or oxidation. It has recently been re-strung on strong, highly flexible jeweler’s flex wire with all of the original material, as the original thread was badly frayed and stretched. The clasp, cones and silver beads have been professionally tested as sterling silver. The turquoise and pen shell has been verified by a certified gemologist. This necklace is guaranteed to be vintage Native American crafted. ***PLEASE NOTE: Any display items pictured are NOT included.*** I request payment within two days of purchase and will ship within two days of payment via USPS First Class mail.
