STUNNING SIMPLICITY
This incredible vintage squash blossom necklace is stunning in its simplicity. Dating back to the 1940’s with it’s Jean’s INC Indian pawn tag intact, it features a single strand of large Navajo pearls supporting ten blossoms. The necklace is finished with a sandcast silver naja accented twist rope detail and three dainty turquoise cabochons. Timeless, classic, and very collectible.
