    Description

    Being offered is a truly vintage, Navajo Indian crafted jewelry necklace.  The necklace is made of what are called bench beads.  These were hand made of sterling silver.  The artisan would craft half beads on a work bench and then join the two halves and seal them with liquid sterling silver, giving the ridge look on these beads.  These are vintage in that the ridges are more pronounced than the more recent bench beads produced in the 1960's and 1970's.  Most Native jewelry now-a-days use machine made beads.  The beads have a die stamped pattern or design, similar to the Fred Harvey era jewelry.  All the beads look in good condition, intact, and ready to wear.  The largest bead is approx. 1/2" by 7/16".  The smallest is approx. 3/16" by 3/16".  The entire necklace is approx. 25 1/2" long.  SH includes insurance.
    I stand behind all my Native American Indian crafted items to be as represented, and provide a full unconditional refund, including return shipping if the item is not authentic and as described.   My Native Indian arts, crafts, and jewelry are purchased directly from Natives, usually in Arizona, South Dakota, New Mexico, as well as buying from specialty auctions and sales.  In addition, I sell items for Native Americans and from personal collections.  As a result, there is no time limitation on returns, but items returned need to be in their original condition.
    Please feel free to contact me with any questions about my items. I stand behind my merchandise and provide a full refund if items are not as described.  Purchase with confidence as I do want customers to be satisfied with their purchase.  Check-out my other items for sale and auction.  Buyer pays a flat shipping rate.  I do combine items to save on shipping costs.   Please let me know ahead of time.
    Check out my Ebay shipping terms.  PLEASE NOTE:  Shipping items could take up to 5 business days, or 7 regular days once payment is made due to being an old man with arthritis, back issues, and a host of other medical problems.  I will try my best to get the item out sooner.  Thanks for your business.
