Description

This is a Navajo handcrafted Naja Pendant, Necklace and Earring Set. The Naja and Earrings feature beautiful Turquoise Stones with a cream color variation running throughout the stones as well as traces of the host rock. The reverse of the Naja is signed by the Navajo artist C Yazzie and is stamped Sterling. The necklace is a 20 inch solid Sterling Rope Chain.

The Pendant is approximately 2 3/8 inches long from the top of the bale to the bottom of the pendant by 2 inches wide at its widest point. The Sterling Silver post earrings are approximately 3/4 long by 1/2 inch wide at the widest point.

Total weight of the Pendant is 12.9 grams, total weight of the pair of earrings is 5.6 grams and total weight of the Sterling Silver Chain is 9.0 grams.

It is believe that the Southwestern Indians first saw the Naja ornament on the horse bridles of the Spanish Conquistadors in thhe late 1500s and early 1600s. Captured or traded, these ornaments soon graced the necks of the local Native Americans. Their acquisition was a matter of pride, and as the generations came and went, the najahe or naja became symbolic and was associated through ceremony with crop fertility.
