Navajo Silver Bead Necklace, c.1950-60

This is a Navajo silver bead necklace from about the 1950s. The beads show good workmanship and are nicely tapered in a flying saucer shape. Also, the beads are unstamped, giving them a high shine for a necklace of its age. The beads are strung on silver chain, and the necklace is quite long, measuring 25" end-to-end, with silver conical endings and a hook-and-eye closure. The conical ends are very lightly stamped "Sterling" with a sun. An excellent piece of authentic Southwest jewelry—complimentary shipping included.
