Delicate Vintage Zuni Native American Sterling Silver Petit Point Turquoise Necklace (N040)

Vintage Zuni Native American Sterling Silver & Turquoise Petit Point Style Necklace
Approx Age: Vintage (Circa 1960s).
This small and delicate vintage necklace features tiny cabochons of Sleeping Beauty turquoise handcrafted with Sterling Silver.
This style has a feminine quality to it, as the stones are set in small and elegant settings.
This design is very tedious as each bezel is individually shaped and solder.
Total weight of this piece is 24 grams.
Total length: 15” from end to end. (children’s or “choker” size).
However; since it has a hook closure, you could easily add a chain to make it longer.
If you buy this necklace, I will add a 4.5'' sterling silver chain as a complementary gift so you can wear it longer if you prefer. Pictures show how necklace looks with and without extra 4.5'' chain.
Necklace is stamped XXS
No other marks!
STERLING: unmarked, verified sterling silver
Stone: Turquoise (Most likely Sleeping Beauty).
Closure: Eye & Hook
The Sterling Silver was not cleaned. We didn't want to compromise the natural patina.
Please look closely at the pictures as they are an important part of our description.
This necklace will be a valuable addition to your collection of fine vintage Native American jewelry.
Truly a stunning piece! Not a modern reproduction!
