It doesn't get more traditional and bold than this. This gorgeous, high polish black onyx squash blossom set was handmade by Navajo silversmith Linda Yazzie in New Mexico. Linda's attention-to-detail creates a beautiful symmetrical piece sure to "wow". Squash blossom necklaces have been traditional wear for many Native American tribes, and continue to be a highly-recognised and coveted design and symbol in southwestern jewelry today. This piece features traditional Navajo pearls and earrings to match. Created completely with sterling silver, from the beads to the setting to the hook and eye.
