Gorgeous hand crafted modernist signed liquid silver necklace and pendant. The 18" sterling silver liquid silver necklace is signed Sterling and stamped with a Rising Sun near the clasp. The necklace features 5 slinky silver heshi and gemstone beaded strands with hook back closure. It has very slinky feel and drapes beautifully on the neck!

The sterling oval pendant measures 1" X 3/4" and is signed Sterling on the back. It is a gorgeous South Western / First Nations / Native American Zuni stye that features a bezel set inlay of rainbow gemstones including; turquoise, malachite, howlite, spiny oyster shell or coral, lapis, red agate, other agates, and jasper. The pendant has etched detail work on the flat part of the silver.

Note I am not a jeweller and have noted the gemstones based on research, they are not guaranteed to be correct. The photos they are a true representation.

The piece is in excellent vintage condition with the expected vintage patina.

This necklace was most likely made on a reservation between 1970s to 1980s. It was given to me as a gift in the 1980s

A lovely piece of Native American Indian jewelry to add to your collection.
