About the Item

Navajo squash blossom with Kingman turquoise. Featuring 18 beautiful bright blue stones with dark matrix. Each stone surrounded by twisted rope border. Simple piece, great for casual wear alone or layered with other pieces. Late 20th century. Old Pawn. Acquired from a Navajo trader. Size: 22"L; naja 3" x 2 1/2" The Navajo word for the squash blossom bead literally means “bead that spreads out”. This tri-petal form first appeared about 1880. Scholars believe that this flower motif was introduced by the Spanish as a variation of the pomegranate flower blossom, and the Navajo adapted it as a symbol of their revered squash. Initially the necklaces were rather simple with the tri-petal silver beads interspersed with rather plain beads. In time, stones were added to the blossom beads as demonstrated in our collection. According to the Navajo, the Naja is strictly decorative; however, it has always been held in high regard by the Navajo and other peoples.
