Vintage Navajo Sterling Silver Pearl Necklace. 47 fluted disks, 6 barrels 1-1/4in x 1/2in.
Fluted beads and barrels were all handmade from raw sterling silver. Imagine taking the time to make every bead. My mother bought it in the 70's from a silversmith North of Gallup, NM. I grew up in Tuba City, Az.My parents were traders on the Navajo Res, Dad traded livestock, my mom traded Native arts and built a collection. We moved to Phoenix in 93 everything was packed away a forgotten.
