Outstanding Vintage Sterling Silver Turquoise Squash Blossom Necklace Signed BJB
Outstanding vintage sterling silver turquoise squash blossom necklace. The artist's hallmark is a diagonal (BJB). The style appears to be Navajo. The necklace features 12 turquoise blossoms and a naja with 7 turquoise stones. Silver beaded wire surrounds the blossom stones and adds a lovely flourish to the naja. The edge borders are stamped round wire. The blossoms graduate in size, from 1 5/8" long with 10mm stones near the top to 1 7/8" long with 16mm stones at the naja. The naja is 3 1/2" tall by 3 1/2" wide. Its stones vary in size. The largest is 16mm by 15mm, and the smallest stone is 11mm by 7mm. One stone has a thin crack along the matrix, but it is secure in the bezel. The necklace is strung with 7mm silver beads. This piece is 25 1/2" long including the shepherd's hook clasp. The necklace is in good condition. Thank you for shopping in our store, and please feel free to message us with any questions.
