Description

This lovely necklace was hand fabricated by Zuni artists Peter & Vivian Haloo. It is set with 286 hand cut 2mm natural turquoise stones that are carefully set in fine hand crafted bezels. The hours spent on this delicate work can only be imagined.

Each middle section measures 1 1/4" long by 2 1/2" diameter, with each section decreasing in diameter. The total necklace length measures 24" long, which includes hand made graduated silver beads. This necklace dated to the 1970's, does not have a maker's mark, but was purchased with a matching ring that is Hallmarked. Note the tiny, tiny silver twist wire between each row of stones, adding the final touch to this lovely piece.

Their work is published in "Zuni The Art and The People" Volume 3.
