Sterling Silver 18" Bead Necklace by Leonard Nez

A beautifully crafted 18-inch Navajo Pearl necklace by master silversmith Leonard Nez, featuring high-polished sterling silver beads with a distinctive section of hand-formed fluted beads in a rich oxidized finish that highlights each bead's grooves. A single larger accent bead sits at center, adding a subtle focal point to the continuous strand. The necklace is finished with a classic torpedo-style hook-and-eye clasp — handmade sterling silver, consistent with traditional Navajo silversmithing. Versatile enough to wear alone as a refined statement or layered with other pieces for a curated, stacked look. A timeless collector's piece rooted in authentic Navajo craft tradition.
