This stunning 1972 CA Shorty sterling silver mother of pearl squash blossom necklace is traditional in design, the single emblematic piece of jewelry that has come to define the renowned Native American silversmiths of the American Southwest. This necklace is wearable art, designed to be comfortable and commanding.
The inverted crescent pendants on squash-blossom necklaces, called the 'Naja' by the Navajo, are found in various design forms throughout the world's cultures. The Naja originally was used on horses headstalls, but later moved into necklaces, and is a decorative element seen in lots of Native American jewelry!
