Hand-strung by master Navajo silversmith T. Yazzie, this 26" Kingman Turquoise necklace marries time-honored traditions with the vibrant hues of desert skies. Each sterling silver “pearl” is individually hammered, patinated, and hand-knotted, serving as a polished frame for seven hand-cut Kingman turquoise oblongs that cascade like sunlit riverbeds. Wear it long for a dramatic drape or looped twice for a layered frontier-chic look—a true testament to Yazzie’s storied heritage and craftsmanship.

Material Origins

• Kingman Turquoise Ovals: Ethically sourced from Arizona’s legendary Kingman mine, prized for its robin’s-egg blue and intricate matrix.

• .925 Sterling Silver Pearls: Recycled silver, hand-hammered into graduated Navajo “pearls,” oxidized to accentuate depth and character.

• Artisan Signature: Each bead and clasp bears T. Yazzie’s hallmark, ensuring authentic Navajo provenance.

Style Tips

• Layer over a high-collar blouse or denim jacket for a polished Western statement.

• Double-wrap around the neck for a bold choker effect paired with a flowing prairie dress.

• Accentuate with matching silver hoops and turquoise studs to complete your rodeo-ready ensemble.

Care Instructions

• After wear, gently polish beads and stones with a soft, dry cloth.

• Avoid contact with lotions, perfumes, and harsh chemicals.

• Store flat in a fabric-lined pouch or box to preserve patina and prevent tangling.
