Natural Turquoise, white cotton cording

$1200.00
Four strands of exceptional natural turquoise beads handshaped and drilled and strung in the Pueblo manner of tightly wrapped white cording as the neck support. The arrangement of alternating round and disc shaped beads and the rich variation in shades of greenish-blue of the natural turquoise create a stunning and traditional Native American adornment. Though contemporary, this style harkens back to ancient times before silversmithing was introduced into North America.
