Description
13" Benson Yazzie Navajo hand stamped sterling collar necklace. Nice piece with a built in loop to hand a hook style pendant. I measured myself after the photos were taken and it‘s 13" inside including the 2.5" flexible gap. It is very sturdy but still flexible.
All precious metals are tested and guaranteed. A Native American jewelry piece referred to as "silver" or "ingot" is guaranteed to be at least 90% silver. I rarely use the word "sterling" when referring to older Native American silver or really any older silver jewelry as silver contents vary and "sterling" is 92.5% silver. No older jewelry is going to be exactly 92.5% silver, some a little over, some a little under. It wasn‘t an exact thing with handmade jewelry. I‘ve seen thousands of pieces xrf‘d to prove this. Bracelets are photographed on a 6" women‘s wrist.
