Native American Genuine Turquoise Necklace Bracelet Set Navajo Jewelry by Veronica Begay.

This set is hand made by Navajo artist Veronica Begay. The matching choker and bracelet have a timeless style both traditional and contemporary. This necklace has three hand-strung strands of 4mm hand drilled genuine Turquoise nuggets interspersed with polished, flat rectangular Turquoise Magnesite beads. The tennis bracelet is made to match. Each nugget of this beautiful Turquoise delivers a gorgeous display of natural colors, making each nugget unique. Just like snowflakes, no two Turquoise nuggets are exactly alike. The faceted beads were each made from genuine Magnesite, a cousin of Turquoise. These large beads are approximately 30mm by 40mm and dyed to match Turquoise. The Turquoise nuggets are strung back-to-back and highlighted with Sterling Silver seamless beads, giving it classic Native character. Each end of this Turquoise necklace has been dressed with Sterling Silver cones. A 3" Sterling Silver extension chain is part of the 17" length of this Turquoise necklace. Designed and strung in our shop by Veronica Begay. The group picture demonstrates the range of variety from piece to piece. The Bracelet and Choker are also available separately at 0042-BR, and 0042-BNK.
