The Navajo Squash Blossom necklace has a long history in the Native American jewelry which exceeds over hundred years. “Naja”, a crescent shaped pendant is considered the main part of the squash blossom necklace. Through time, the “Naja” became more meaningful and significant. It was associated with crop fertility, as many ceremonies were related to the agricultural cycle.

Navajo simply means “beads that spread out” and squash blossoms are the flower shapes which are attached to the beads. This necklace reminds us of the interaction between Navajo and Pueblo. The original Navajo squash blossom necklace is made of silver and turquoise.
