Vintage 5 Strand Pueblo Beaded Necklace of Fine Natural Turquoise

This majestic Pueblo necklace of graduated natural turquoise beads is superb. More refined than a nugget necklace, this one can be dressed up or down according to the occasion. What matters is turquoise - all the way! 

The vintage piece was handmade at Kewa (or Santo Domingo Pueblo) 5 strands of the most beautiful turquoise beads in rondelle shapes are smaller at the top and larger at the bottom. Tied at the top with a pueblo wrap, the necklace slips gracefully over your head, so there's no clasp to mess with.

This turquoise necklace is just waiting to enhance whatever canvas you provide. It's one of those that you'll have and love forever!

Necklace measures 14.5" and is from a private collection. Original tag attributed the piece to Joe Cate.
