Fantastic old pawn squash blossom necklace hallmarked Ted Bacca. We recently obtained several outstanding vintage pieces from New Mexico and this one is truly the best of the best! The five turquoise stones are gem grade with beautiful fine spider web matrix throughout. Artistically set in heavy silver bezels with fan accents. Please notice the amazing detail to these pendants. The bezels are 1/4" thick with hand stamped details. The pendants are attached to handmade bench beads all strung on old foxtail. This is a nice substantial piece weighing 110 grams of silver and stone. Three stone center pendant is 2 1/2" x 1 3/4"; side blossoms are approx 1 1/4" x 1 1/8". Measures 20 1/2" end to end plus the 2 1/2" center piece. Exact age unknown - heavy rich patina. It just doesn't get any better than this.
