Necklace c. 1950

This silver necklace, created by a Navajo (Diné) artist around 1950, is a stunning example of traditional Native American jewelry. The necklace features a series of rounded beads interspersed with dangling, stylized figures. A crescent-shaped pendant hangs at the center, adding a symbolic element to the piece. The necklace is currently on display at the Minneapolis Institute of Art.
