Vintage Hand Carved Turquoise Beads Santo Domingo Pueblo Kewa Necklace - DN
Couldn't load pickup availability
This is truly a one-of-a-kind necklace with hand-carved turquoise beads. The centerpiece is a very large, solid pear shaped bead. The necklace is finished with silver beads and a classic hook and figure 8. At the end is a disk with the artist's initials, DN. This is a vintage necklace and I was not able to find out who that is, however this is very typical of Santo Domingo Pueblo jewelry work.

Care Instructions
Care Instructions
Protect your jewelry from harsh chemicals and solvents as they can damage turquoise and other stones. I recommend using a Sunshine Cloth or similar to polish your silver. Do not immerse or subject your jewelry to running water as it can dislodge the stone from the setting.
