Native American Four Strand Bone Choker represents the history of many great tribes...the Sioux, Crow & Apache to name a few! This choker is meant more than just jewelry, it signified honor, bravery and victory. Made by Navajo Shirley Wiley. Authentic, hair-pipe tubes were strung on sinew with Turquoise and Apple Coral wheel beads and are held in place by the etched slabs. About 1-1/8" tall and about 14" from tab to tab, the leather ties add an additional 6" on each end, Turquoise Beads with beautiful southwest color. Genuine, sky blue Turquoise was shaped into 4-5mm irregular rounds. The stones are held in place by the hand knotting on waxed reinforced thread. About 31" long, 6 large cabochons exhibiting a nice dalmatian-like pattern of dark inclusions.
