Photos do not show actual size! Have a tape measure handyI never shop for online jewelry without one! Unknown Navajo Native American Artisan. Sand Cast Sterling Silver: Due to the porous nature of the materials used, cast items often will have character marks and imperfections such as small pits which are to be expected as this is the nature of Sand Casting. Circa 1920s Hand Wrought Navajo Naja Pendant Necklace. Pendant: 4 Raw Turquoise Nuggets & Traditional Stampings The outer nuggets run 11-12 mm & the center is 10 mm. Chain: Handmade Benchwork Navajo Pearl & Melon Beads strung on chain. Hook & Eye Clasp. Marks (photo 9): Navajo with a prominent underlined N followed by faint lettering; Underlined M and possibly a smaller M next to it. In the Navajo language it means crescent shape or curve. This amulet, originally used on the browband of Moorish Horses to keep away the evil eye, is thought to have been handed down from the Spanish Moors to Spanish caballeros in Mexico. It is unclear whether the Navajo adopted the crescent directly from the Spanish or from the Plains Indian. Early Navajo Najas were plain sterling, but after 1880 gemstones were also used to embellish the talisman. Excellent Vintage condition with very minor wear considering the age! Patina is certainly present on this old beauty – I never clean vintage pieces (disturbs the patina) and leave that to the discretion of the new owner. 26.5 Matinee length, Naja is 2 L x 2-1/8 W, 47.5g.
