Vintage Native American Navajo Sterling Silver Yei Necklace
A rare timeless treasure from the American Southwest, this vintage Navajo squash blossom necklace features a striking 2" x 2.25" Naja pendant, surrounded by a beautifully balanced array of matching mini Najas—a unique twist on the traditional blossom design. The piece is handcrafted from sterling silver (tested, not stamped—consistent with its vintage age) and strung with elegant handmade beads, including distinctive torpedo-shaped accents.
The necklace measures approximately 24 inches in length (excluding the Naja) and has a substantial weight of 103.9 grams, offering both elegance and presence. Please note: there are two missing small ball beads on the right side near the mini Najas. This does not affect the integrity of the necklace and can easily be addressed by restringing. It is priced accordingly to reflect this.
