Up for sale is an outstanding old pawn handmade Navajo sterling silver two stamped natural turquoise heishi bead necklace!

Heishi beads are made by slicing the shell or stone into uniform strips. Then the pieces are nipped into small squares. Each square then has a hole drilled in it. The squares are strung, each material being strung in a separate group. The strings of squares are smoothed and rounded by grinding and rolling the beads. Once the beads have reached the rough ground round stage, they are ready for sanding. The beads are smoothed and shaped using sandpaper. The string of finished material is washed and dried in the sun. Then they are polished on a leather belt.

The necklace measures31 1/4\"and weighs146.5g. The stands are 3/8\" at their widest point. As seen in the pictures, many of the beads have chips around the edges.

The necklace pictured is the one you will receive. Thank you for looking and good luck offerding!
