Fine Old Pawn Cross Necklace

Description: This is a fine, old pawn cross necklace dating from about 1920. Dealers often estimate the dates of American Indian pieces as rather older than they actually are, but this necklace with pendant cross is, indeed, a significant, old piece--probably Navajo in origin. The cross is decorated with 11 bezel-set turquoise stones and much intricate hand stamping. The turquoise shows the slight color variation typical of older pieces. The links are each hand stamped, and the clasp is in the form of a small bird. Click to view more detailed images. The cross is marked "sterling". This lovely necklace is in very good condition with no cracked or loose stones.
