Magnificent Chrysocolla Navajo Native American Necklace Pendant - Loren Thomas Begay
Chrysocolla is a second cousin to turquoise. It's not a stone you come across very often in Native American jewelry. This stone is a particularly beautiful stone and I'm sure that why Loren Begay chose it to set into his fine silver smithing. The bail is large enough to accommodate beads or a chain. Signed on the back LTB (Loren Thomas Begay, Navajo) and sterling.
Measurements:
2 5/16" top to bottom, including the bail x 1 1/16"
Option to add the 18" wheat chain hand finished to match the pendant as shown in the photos: Click here
Care Instructions
Care Instructions
Protect your jewelry from harsh chemicals and solvents as they can damage turquoise and other stones. I recommend using a Sunshine Cloth or similar to polish your silver. Do not immerse or subject your jewelry to running water as it can dislodge the stone from the setting.
