IF YOU’RE LOOKING FOR A SQUASH BLOSSOM-STYLE NECKLACE THAT’S GOING TO STAND OUT, YOU’VE FOUND IT.
This unique vintage Zuni beauty is a remarkable and rare collectible. Poised on a double strand of handmade desert pearls are a series of six colorful knifewing kachinas, crafted in intricate inlay of black onyx, turquoise, coral, and mother of pearl. The characters are accented by sterling silver scrolls, rope, and drop details. The statement squash blossom is centered by a larger (but otherwise identical) knifewing kachina in place of a traditional naja. A one-of-a-kind collector!
