Description

View Necklace 33'' long heishi shell beads turquoise nuggets vintage 1970's handmade with current marketplace pricing, condition, product images and item details. Weighs nearly 75 grams and has a silver hook n hoop clasp. In regard to odors, we know everyone's olfactories are different. Mine, for example, is probably less than average (sinus issues).  This necklace is a vintage handmade piece from the 1970s, likely Navajo, featuring heishi shell beads and turquoise nuggets. The natural turquoise stones are the main focus of the design, with a deep blue color that complements the shells. Measuring 33 inches long, this necklace showcases a beaded style making it a unique and culturally-inspired accessory for women who appreciate ethnic and tribal jewelry. Made with materials sourced from the United States, this necklace is a statement piece that embodies the beauty of nature and craftsmanship. Weighs nearly 75 grams and has a silver hook n hoop clasp. The good sized turquoise nuggets mostly measure in the 1/2'' to 3/4'' wide range.    Note: We generally do not clean our items (especially jewelry) and prefer to just list our items as we find them. Also, please keep scale in mind when viewing smaller items in these greatly magnified pics. These photos are many X's larger than the actual small items and some flaws or perceived flaws are simply not visible in the real world of the 'naked eye'. It may be just some dust or a smudge that you are seeing. You'd be surprised how your own seemingly fine and flawless personal jewelry looks under extreme magnification!   ALSO: We primarily sell antique / vintage collectible items. Old, used items often have some issues in terms of condition, function and even smell (some items just have stubborn or lingering smells). We do our best to point out all flaws and try to take crisp clear photos of our merchandise so you know exactly what you will be receiving. But, we may make a mistake occasionally and overlook a flaw or defect. Also, if an item has a particularly pungent smell (usually only an issue with items more molecularly porous like those made of paper/wood or fabrics/textiles) we will also make note of it in the listing.   Older items will show some signs of wear and age to some degree and may need to be reconditioned, refurbished and restored.   In regard to odors, we know everyone's olfactories are different. That is, some folks have a 'sniffer' like a bloodhound and some folks have a poor sense of smell. Mine, for example, is probably less than average (sinus issues). If you have a particularly keen sense of smell that is easily offended or if you or someone in your household has chronic health issues such as allergies it may make more sense for you to buy such items first hand.   The point is, and this should go without saying, don't expect old antique / vintage items to look, work and smell like new! Thanks!
