Southwestern Native American Indian turquoise Sterling silver bead necklace and naja pendant, stamped STERLING, and signed EL BILLAH by the Navajo artist. This necklace showcases a beautiful aqua-colored turquoise stone on the naja pendant. The stone is set in a serrated bezel wrapped in silver rope on the top section of the pendant, and adorned, on the bottom, by a single hogan applique. A larger hogan was applied to each end of the sand cast naja pendant. The pendant’s bale is also sand cast, and has the same textured background as the naja. The naja pendant is approximately 3″ tall (including the loop and bale) by 2 1/4″ wide, at its widest point. The pendant is almost 2 1/4 minus loop and bale. The bale is 1/2″ tall by 1/2″ wide. The necklace has very sturdy 1/4 seamless silver beads, with an elegant antique finish. The total weight of this piece is 86.6 grams, and the length is 27, measured from hook to the loop-connector. Outstanding craftsmanship and stone. Thank you for supporting authentic Native American art.
