GENUINE NAVAJO Handmade Multistone Native American Pendant

This contemporary pendant is from a collection of Navajo Native American jewelry and handmade in sterling silver. It is an inlay style pendant with magenta turquoise, onyx, and laboratory made Opal. Navajos are pioneers of silversmithing since the 1850’s. Their jewelry is highly regarded because of its unique style and beauty. Contemporary designs enhance the stones and silver depending on the style, skill and inspiration of the artist. Decorating techniques include stamp work, beading and engraving. Natural turquoise stones and shells are traditionally used. Over the years, other natural and non-natural materials such as coral, lapis, onyx, jet and man made opals have been added to enrich the Navajo jewelry designs.
