DESCRIPTION:
Looking at such beauty tells the capabilities of Native American art! This piece of Native American jewelry is Navajo hand strung out of genuine sterling silver, along with real Red Oyster Shell, and Coral beads. The necklace consists of: 2-mm silver round beads, 3-mm Coral round beads, and 8-mm Red Oyster Shell rondelle beads. Both ends of the necklace are completed with a silver cone for a lovely look. The cones are stamped sterling.
Corals are known to be very soothing and very protective. Coral is of an organic origin; it is the skeletal remains of marine animals called Coral Polyps. Colonies of these tiny creatures build branching structures as they grow, gradually forming reefs and atolls.
