Product code: Heishi, Silver, Turquoise and Channel on sale Inlay Pendant Necklace
A vintage Heishi necklace and channel inlay pendant on sale. Features about 192 white and brown beads, 8 small silver beads, 2 elongated beads, 2 turquoise pieces and the multicolored pendant. This piece is another from our private collection of native american jewelry and art that we collected while living in Farmington, NM and my work on the Navajo Nation during the 1980's and early 1990's.
Necklace weighs 12 grams and is 16 inches long. Hook clasp, strung on wire. Pendant has white, black, coral and green plus the silver separator. Pendant is cast. Small nick in the red coral. Design could be called a warrior with a single eye. This is probably the work of a Zuni or Santo Domingo artist. Original patina, never polished.
