This handcrafted necklace is a testament to Navajo craftsmanship, made by artist Ray Bennett. The striking Carico Lake Turquoise stones are set in sterling silver, complemented by hand-stamped Navajo pearls. Each silver pearl begins as a flat sheet, meticulously stamped, cut, domed, and fused into a perfect bead. Once oxidized and polished, each bead is drilled and strung to create a seamless, weighted piece. At 20 inches, this necklace carries both history and elegance in every detail.
Dimension:
Necklace 20" length
