Native American Squash Blossom Necklaces

Cisco’s Gallery offers historic, vintage and contemporary Native American squash blossom necklaces, with a particular focus in Diné (Navajo) and Zuni silverwork. The recognizable form developed during the late 19th century as Southwestern silversmiths combined silver beads, flared elements, crescent-shaped naja pendants and later turquoise and other stones.
