What kind of turquoise is that? This is possibly the most frequent question you hear in the Trading Post. You have mines all over the world and a number of these mines produce very similar stones, making this a hard question to answer sometimes. And this magnificent squash blossom is all about the turquoise. All eighteen spider web rocks are cuts of Egyptian Turquoise that show off an incredible blue with a maroon tinted web. Navajo silversmith Freddie Maloney made this traditional squash blossom necklace using the impressive free form cuts. Freddie decorates around the stones with styled beads, stamp work, twisted wire, and a rustic brushed finish. Everything hangs on sterling silver beads and will give you an amazing looking piece of handmade jewelry. Total Length – 30” Naja – 3 7/8” x 3 1/4" Weight – 282.8 grams Show more
