Striking vintage Native American LARGE handmade stamped silver beads and turquoise nugget necklace. This is a fun and very attractive necklace. The PHOTOGRAPHS SIMPLY DON’T DO THIS PIECE JUSTICE! The large silver beads measure a WHOPPING 5/8 diameter and is divided by two comparable sized turquoise nuggets. It is well balanced and very easy to wear. The turquoise stones carry a high polish that gives us the impression that a clear gloss was sprayed on the outside of the stones as a way to stabilize and prevent them from breaking up over the years. This is very common to nugget style turquoise necklaces. This lovely necklace is strung on sterling silver foxtail so that it flows comfortably when you move. This necklace is not for the subtle turquoise lover. When you wear this, people will know your love and passion for Native American turquoise jewelry. PLEASE SEE QUARTER SHOTS TO GET A BETTER IDEA OF THE LARGE SIZE. Unmarked as is appropriate for pieces of this vintage. Turquoise and Sterling Silver. Excellent vintage condition with wear appropriate for age. No damage to turquoise or silver. Length: 27 hook to eye. Whopping 141 Grams / over 5 Ounces.
