Signed Navajo Sterling Silver & Turquoise Necklace — 22" Bench Beads
This authentic vintage Navajo necklace features handcrafted sterling silver bench beads and a bold, removable turquoise pendant. The pendant is set with a natural triangular turquoise stone exhibiting vivid sky-blue color and rich black matrix. It is framed by detailed silver feather motifs and traditional Navajo stamp work. The necklace is finished with sterling silver cones and a classic hook clasp, a hallmark of traditional Navajo craftsmanship.
The pendant is signed on the reverse with a stamped "L", consistent with marks used by various Navajo silversmiths. While the exact maker remains unidentified, stylistic and construction details align with mid-to-late 20th century Navajo artisan work.
A well-balanced blend of cultural artistry and wearable design, this piece is ideal for collectors of Native American jewelry or anyone seeking a statement in silver and stone.
