  
 This attractive silver and turquoise pendant with chain necklace was hand-made by artisan Marcine Stead of the Zuni Native American culture. The pendant on this bracelet is an excellent example of the "cluster" style of Zuni jewelry, in which Marcine Stead specializes. Additionally, in the pendant on this necklace Marcine uses round shaped pieces of turquoise to create the cluster patterns. Marcine signs all of her pieces on the back as "M.Stead". Marcine gets her silver from mines in Nevada, USA and the turquoise used in this piece comes from Arizona, USA. This lovely necklace would look nice as a single piece or as part of a matching set of turquoise pieces including earrings or a bracelet.
The pendant on this necklace measures 1.125" (1 1/8") in Diameter while the silver chain 18" Long.
