Rare Fox Green Turquoise Graduated Heishi Style Necklace Santo Domingo

Our Rare Fox Green Turquoise Graduated Heishi Style Necklace is a remarkable piece of wearable art, handcrafted by our celebrated female Santo Domingo Pueblo (Kewa Pueblo) artist, whose museum-quality work has been showcased at the National Museum of the American Indian in New York City. Each bead is cut, shaped, and polished entirely by hand, reflecting generations of mastery passed down through time. Made exclusively for Pax Philomena, this necklace embodies the deep cultural heritage and artistry of the Southwest.

The Fox green turquoise featured here is among the most prized and elusive varieties of American turquoise. Once mined in Nevada, the Fox mine has long been closed, making its unique stones highly sought after by collectors. Known for their extraordinary range of greens and blues with delicate golden-brown veining, these stones possess a natural depth and warmth that is both earthy and ethereal. Their subtle tonal variations tell the story of the desert landscape and the passage of time, each bead a small piece of history shaped into beauty.

Strung in the traditional Heishi style, this necklace showcases perfectly graduated disc-shaped beads that lie gracefully along the neckline. The balance of color, proportion, and movement creates an effortless sophistication, whether worn alone as a statement of understated luxury or layered with other pieces for a more bohemian aesthetic. The tactile smoothness of each bead, combined with its organic luster, speaks to the precision and patience required in the Santo Domingo jewelry tradition.

Turquoise has long been considered a sacred stone, symbolizing protection, wisdom, and the harmony between earth and sky. This necklace carries that spiritual essence, merging artistry, culture, and nature into one timeless creation. It is more than jewelry, it is a story of craftsmanship, legacy, and love for the materials gifted by the land.

Our Rare Fox Green Turquoise Graduated Heishi Style Necklace Santo Domingo is a treasure to wear and to keep, an heirloom of elegance, authenticity, and heritage, made by hand and heart, exclusively for Pax Philomena.
