Navajo, Zuni etc, Handmade Incredible Jewelry, Art and Pottery
This vintage Native American Heishe necklace is very old in nature. This was a buy about 1 week ago in a pawn shop bordering on the edge of the Navajo Nation's in Winslow , Arizona. First of all, I really believe the Heishe Beads are of Stabilized Turquoise. It would be almost impossible for me to tell , but it is always safer to assume that then to state they are natural. They are graduated from the largest being about 3/8'' in diameter to the smallest at the top ends to be about 1/8'' in diameter . Entire necklace is about 19'' in length, including the hook and latch. I think but cannot test that the silver beads and bells and whatnot are Sterling Silver. They are strung on what appears to be older waxed string of some sort. No problems of any kind visible to the naked eye. Great eye-catching Necklace. Thanks for your interest
