Navajo or Zuni "Box Bow" Squash Blossom Necklace w Turquoise circa 1930-40

$3,200.00

The squash blossom necklace originated with the Navajo in the latter 1800s. The "box bow" design was an evolution of that design which emerged in the 1930s. This particular necklace has no blossom under the "box" which is unusual, but highly effective in this smaller scale necklace. The box, comes to us as merely a square cut turquoise stone set on an elaborate box design with 4 raindrops on either side of the stone. These are all spaced between 4 hand made silver beads. The Naja pendant, an ancient symbol of protection, has 3 stones, one square cut and the 2 at the ends are round. It's a beautiful necklace and easy to wear as it's lighter in weight than most squash blossom necklaces. Weight 64 grams
Length end to end: 18"
Naja dimensions: 1 7/8" x 1 3/4"
