This style of squash blossom necklace, known as a box bow, was very popular in the 1930's and 40's.   (I occasionally see a modern one, but not often.)

This one, circa 1930's, is 26 inches long and strung on cotton string. I’d strongly recommend restringing it on foxtail if you plan on wearing it much.   $1275.

This cluster bracelet dates to around 1930, when both Navajo and Zuni were making this style of work.   It measures 1.9 inches across at the widest part.   $1100.

This style of cluster bracelet was made by both Navajo and Zuni artists in the 1920s to early 30s.   In excellent condition.   Classic.   $1275.

Squash Blossom Necklace.   Post WWII – 1950 Navajo squash blossom necklace strung with fluted beads.   The naja is set with turquoise that appears to be from one of the Nevada mines.   If you look closely, the second squash blossom from the top on the right side has a serrated tab, typical of pre-WWII work.   It is the only one on the necklace with that decorative treatment.   A very nicely made piece.   $1500.
