Vintage Turquoise Nugget Necklace – Sterling Ends, 23", 129g
A bold vintage Southwestern-style necklace strung with 86 graduated turquoise nuggets, each displaying natural matrix and unique coloration from sky blue to greenish tones. The nuggets range in size from approximately 12.4 mm to 19.8 mm, creating a dynamic graduated look. The strand is finished with two sterling silver end beads, silver-tone tapered cones, and a traditional wire-strung hook clasp (not sterling).
Measuring 23 inches in length and weighing 129 grams, this necklace has impressive presence and excellent natural character. The freeform turquoise nuggets, with their organic shapes and dark veining, capture the classic beauty of hand-strung Southwestern jewelry. A substantial and eye-catching piece, ideal for collectors of Native American–style adornment or those seeking a bold turquoise statement necklace.
Condition
In good vintage condition, with expected surface wear and natural inclusions in the stones. The turquoise shows matrix patterns and variations typical of authentic nuggets. The clasp functions securely. Please review photos for close-up views of the beads and clasp.
