About the Item
Old Pawn Native Cerrillos Mine turquoise squash blossom on handmade Navajo chain with beads and 10 turquoise stones. Naja has three larger turquoise stones surrounded by hand stamped beads and slash marks. Stones are large with exceptional coloring, having green, teal, and light blue colors with brown and gold matrix. Great for display or formal Southwestern attire. Size: 30" including Naja 4" x 4"
The Navajo word for the squash blossom bead literally means “bead that spreads out”. This tri-petal form first appeared about 1880. Scholars believe that this flower motif was introduced by the Spanish as a variation of the pomegranate flower blossom, and the Navajo adapted it as a symbol of their revered squash. Initially the necklaces were rather simple with the tri-petal silver beads interspersed with rather plain beads. In time, stones were added to the blossom beads as demonstrated in our collection. According to the Navajo, the Naja is strictly decorative; however, it has always been held in high regard by the Navajo and other peoples.
