Handcrafted by a skilled female artisan who learned her craft from her elders, this piece carries with it generations of knowledge and cultural continuity. Created on commission exclusively for Pax Philomena, it is a deeply personal work—made with intention, care, and a profound respect for heritage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"870\" data-start=\"431\"\u003eFormed in the ancient heishi tradition, each bead is individually hand-cut, drilled, and polished from natural turquoise into smooth, uniform discs. This labor-intensive process requires extraordinary patience and precision, resulting in strands that feel fluid, balanced, and beautifully organic. The three-strand design adds a subtle richness, allowing the necklace to sit gracefully along the neckline with an elegant, layered presence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1384\" data-start=\"872\"\u003eTurquoise, the soul of this piece, has become increasingly rare and difficult to source in its natural form. Once abundant in the American Southwest, many historic mines have been depleted or closed, making high-quality turquoise like this ever more precious. For the Santo Domingo people, turquoise is far more than adornment—it is a sacred stone, symbolizing protection, healing, and a deep connection to the sky and water. Its soft, luminous blue carries a calm strength that has been cherished for centuries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1716\" data-start=\"1386\"\u003eJean Marie personally commissioned this necklace, working closely with the artisan to ensure each detail reflects both tradition and timeless style. Knowing that this piece was created specifically for Pax Philomena adds a layer of intimacy and exclusivity—it is not mass-produced, but thoughtfully made, just for this collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-is-only-node=\"\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-end=\"1920\" data-start=\"1718\"\u003eUnderstated yet powerful, this necklace is one you will reach for again and again. It is a piece that doesn’t shout, but speaks quietly of beauty, heritage, and the enduring value of true craftsmanship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-is-only-node=\"\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-end=\"1920\" data-start=\"1718\"\u003eNumber of strand: 3 \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-is-only-node=\"\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-end=\"1920\" data-start=\"1718\"\u003eLength with Clasp 19\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-is-only-node=\"\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-end=\"1920\" data-start=\"1718\"\u003eMade in USA\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PAX PHILOMENA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52599626236223,"sku":"TURQUOISETHREESTRANDHEISHINECKLACE-OS","price":552.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2529\/6354\/files\/3_6c106554-3fd2-4b2a-9b76-0b961db1603d.png?v=1775075048","url":"https:\/\/paxphilomena.com\/en-au\/products\/turquoise-three-strand-heishi-necklace-santo-domingo","provider":"PAX PHILOMENA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
