Turquoise & Sterling Silver Bead Necklace Navajo Signed

Wonderful vintage Navajo sterling silver and turquoise necklace. The Native American squash blossom necklace is composed of 9-10mm authentic benchmade silver beads. Navajo Pearls that were made by the hands of skilled silversmiths. The art of making Navajo Pearls is an extremely labor intensive process and each one is slightly different. There is a large (2.5") pendant with 3 turquoise squash blossums. They are a lovely rich blue color with spiderweb matrix. It closes with a traditional hook and eye clasp. It is a wonderful piece of Navajo Jewelry to be treasured in your collection and worn for any occasion. Some of the beads have small dents or dings due to its age. I acid tested the pendant and several beads and they all tested to be sterling silver.
