For your consideration is a remarkable Chris Hale Navajo Native American Royston turquoise squash blossom necklace. The necklace features a highly polished gem quality Royston Turquoise, renowned for its beautiful colors ranging from deep forest green to rich, light blues set off by a large, light brown matrix. The turquoise is set in sterling silver and shows wonderful workmanship. The squash blossom is in good condition and is signed on the back of the naja “C. Hale”. The piece shows a single silver beaded strand on a silver linked chain strand. The average size of the hand made silver beads is 14.15 mm. The piece shows a large squash blossom naja pendant with stamped western design. The back of the squash shows the correct patina and wear indicative of its age. The necklace shows seven blossoms on either side of the naja. What is unique about this necklace is that the blossoms are not your traditional pendant blossom. It measures 26 ½" long when unclasped. This is truly a wonderful and quality example of an original piece.
