Authentic Santo Domingo Pueblo Jacla Turquoise necklace
Kingman Green shade of turquoise with rounded rolled and drilled turquoise bead Jacla with hand shaped and drilled Natural Spiney Oyster shell from rough material. Toward the bottom of the necklace near the Jacla ties, pI added larger turquoise pieces and a couple of Natural Lone Mountain turquoise beads as well.. Toward the top where its finished, I added a sterling silver disc with my signature brand "LeJeune" a couple of turquoise stones from the start of the traditional Pueblo cotton wrap of the necklace. I then added a Spiney Oyster shell inlaid tab with turquoise, as my ancestral Pueblo people did as well adding tabs to necklaces. Iam so pleased with the flow, length and feel of this traditional Santo Domingo Pueblo necklace I made.
