Silver squash blossom necklace, attributed to Navajo Indian Silversmith Artist, Etsitty Tsosie (also called Eskiesosie) (circa 1880-1937). A double-strand of fine handmade beads necklace with sixteen filed domes set with beautiful natural turquoise stones. Each has an attached cast and stamped fleur-de-lis or corn stalk. The naja is set with four turquoise stones. It is finished with a hook and eye closure. The necklace is not hallmarked, but has a strong attribution to Eskiesose’s work.
