About the Item

Navajo Morenci turquoise and sterling squash blossom necklace. Ten large quality stones set in shadow box with twisted rope border and sterling bead accents. Naja has five smaller stones set in simple sterling shadowbox. Stones are a bright blue with brown matrix. No makers mark. Great for casual or formal wear. Size: 35"L, Stones approx 1" each 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.
