An unknown Unknown Diné Silversmith created this stunning coral necklace. Five separate sections were combined to make this complete. The curved silver bars on each side are hinged together for flexibility. The teardrop center secures the ensemble. The silver chain has a secure lock.

Each of the silver sections houses six small red coral pieces. The teardrop has nine small coral settings. The necklace is stamped Sterling but there is no artist's name indicated.


Condition: very good condition

Provenance: this Rigid Circular Diné Necklace of Silver and Coral is from a private collection
