Vintage Heishi Necklace From Kewa Or Santo Domingo Pueblo

There's many reasons why Native American jewelry calls to us. Of course, its physical beauty is often what first draws us in. But then there's usually something more than the physical beauty alone that captivates us. It might be the jewelry's story, it might be the way the jewelry makes us feel, or it might even be the physical or energetic sensation the jewelry gives us.

This vintage heishi necklace from Kewa or Santo Domingo Pueblo captures all of the above. The 5 strand heishi necklace is stunning to look at with its traditional style handmade beads of turquoise, white clam shell, melon shell and jet. The soft color combination is gorgeous, but there's something much more. There's something in the feel of these fine heishi beads that'll capture your heart. You'll know their transformative power when you run your fingers over the necklace and find that it's somehow embedded with an essence of Kewa Pueblo. Then, when you slip it over your head, you'll be reminded of what beauty really feels like.

This special necklace measures 28" from end to end. The silver clasp is adjustable. The necklace has a single "sing" bead that may have once identified the unknown artist. It's unsigned and from a New York Collection.
