This listing is for an earlier vintage Navajo Bench Bead Necklace handcrafted from Sterling Silver.
NOTE: Please view all 20 photos…the last 4 photos show necklace on a 5 foot 8 inch tall, size 4 model/mannequin.
Holy Moly!!..What a FIND!!! This earlier Navajo necklace was exceptionally crafted and it’s in amazing condition. The necklace alternates between different sizes of round beads, saucer beads, and melon beads. It’s very unusual to see so many types of beads on a single strand but, it works and looks incredible.
Two round pearls rest at the center of the necklace making a perfect spot to hang your favorite pendant. From the center and up the beads match on each side making a perfect symmetrical design. All of the beads are in beautiful shape and strung on a sturdy link chain with a hook and eye clasp at each end.
There is no sterling stamp or Artist signature which is more than common in vintage navajo jewelry. The silver has been tested and we guarantee the metal content to be .925 sterling.
This beautifully crafted strand of bench beads will be a new favorite amongst any collection. The link chain allows the necklace to shift freely and lay perfectly and the silver has achieved a very rich dark patina. Where it with a large statement pendant, layer with several pearl strands, or wear alone. Either way, it is sure to be seen and admired. Add this tangible asset to your collection today and wear with pride!…You deserve it!
