About the Item

Kingman Mine squash blossom necklace on Navajo beaded chain. Featuring eight large nuggets of stunning turquoise on chain and five on naja, with center stone larger than others. Turquoise has raw, semi polished finish with bright blue and teal colors and golden matrix. Each stone set in simple stamped border. Old Pawn. Acquired from an individual whose family purchased directly on the reservation. Great for display or formal Southwestern attire. Size: 28" Including Naja; Naja 3" x 3 1/2"; Largest Stone 2" x 1" The Navajo word for the squash blossom bead literally means “bead that spreads out”. This tri-petal form first appeared about 1880. Scholars believe that this flower motif was introduced by the Spanish as a variation of the pomegranate flower blossom, and the Navajo adapted it as a symbol of their revered squash. Initially the necklaces were rather simple with the tri-petal silver beads interspersed with rather plain beads. In time, stones were added to the blossom beads as demonstrated in our collection. According to the Navajo, the Naja is strictly decorative; however, it has always been held in high regard by the Navajo and other peoples.
