Squash blossom necklace

By phoebenmorris, 1 November, 2023
Description

Inherited 2 Squash Blossom Necklaces from my uncle (born in the 1930s) who recently past away. He brought these with him when he relocated here from Arizona (long time resident of Tombstone, AZ).

Need help with more information and determining the value of these pieces. One of the necklaces has white stones on it (possibly pearl?) and has the numbers 61327 carved on back of naja pendant.

What I know so far, they are: silver, heavy, squash blossom Navajo jewelry.

Any information is appreciated. Thank you.

Squash blossom necklaces

Jewelry is very difficult to appraise online. The metal needs to be tested (sterling?). Best to take it to a fine jeweler in your area or ask your insurance agent.
Based on the photos, I believe the stones in one of the necklaces is moonstone. (But I can't be sure.)
Both are very nice and desirable!
