This beautiful handcrafted Navajo pendant necklace by Verley Betone features stunning Sonoran Gold turquoise set within an elegant sterling silver teardrop design. The pendant showcases detailed hand-stamped silverwork, dimensional accents, and a striking naja-inspired centerpiece that gives the piece a bold traditional Southwestern presence while remaining refined and wearable.
The Sonoran Gold turquoise displays beautiful natural variation with vibrant green tones, earthy matrix, and incredible character throughout. The oversized hand-stamped bail makes this pendant especially eye-catching and allows it to pair beautifully with the included sterling silver Navajo pearls.
This necklace has a solid back construction and is signed by Navajo artist Verley Betone along with a STERLING stamp on the reverse.
These pieces were sourced prior to recent increases in sterling silver pricing and Sonoran Gold turquoise demand. Comparable replacement pieces may retail at higher current market prices due to rising material and sourcing costs.
