Navajo Sterling Silver Heishi Turquoise Necklace

Absolutely stunning and truly vintage Heishi necklace, full of natural gemstones. While it is not marked with a makers mark, the style is most associated with Navajo jewelry makers/silversmiths. Made from hand-crafted melon shell beads, with varying sizes of sterling silver beads and Kingsman turquoise stones. The turquoise on this necklace is just incredible. Has hook and loop clasp that appears to be silver plated, but not solid sterling. Silver beads have not been polished to maintain natural patina. Necklace measures 18 ½” long, including clasp. In excellent condition.
