Navajo Pendants


Navajo pendantsA pendant is a hanging object, generally attached to a necklace or an earring. Pendants can have various functions, such as ornamentation, identification, or protection. Authentic Navajo pendants can vary greatly in design, but they all have one thing in common - they are highly desired and prized by collectors of native American art, as well as those that just love beautiful jewelry.

The most impressive tradition of jewelry-making in North America belongs to the Navajo Indians, and they seem to have a very special talent for creating stunningly beautiful pendants. The first Navajo pendants were no doubt objects of personal or spiritual importance that were strung on a strip of leather and worn proudly around the neck. Over time Navajo pendants have grown to vary as much as the talented artisans that create them. Today's authentic Navajo pendants are considered works of art that express their designer's individual style while remaining true to the Navajo heritage.

Genuine Navajo pendants are commonly made with sterling silver and adorned with turquoise, malachite, pink shell, banded agate, fire opal, red coral or black onyx. Wearing a necklace with a stunning Navajo pendant attached is a sure way to solicit a raised eyebrow or two!
