Vintage Navajo Petit Point Turquoise Pin-Pendant Silver Necklace

This striking vintage Navajo Silver and turquoise Peti-point pin/pendant is a testament to the artistry and symbolism of Native American jewelry-making. Handcrafted in sterling silver and set with brilliant blue turquoise stones, it reflects a tradition that is both deeply spiritual and beautifully refined. The rare 3" wide circular design, radiating outward like the sun, is more than decorative—it represents harmony, balance, and the cycles of life, themes central to Navajo culture.

Turquoise has always held a sacred place among Native peoples of the Southwest. Known as the “stone of life,” it is believed to offer protection, healing, and a direct connection to the sky and water. Its clear, vibrant blue was cherished not only for its beauty but also as a symbol of well-being, abundance, and spiritual guidance. To wear turquoise was to carry strength, peace, and blessings.

The craftsmanship in this piece speaks to generations of skill passed down within Navajo families. Each stone is carefully cut and set into sterling silver, with twisted wire and intricate silver work framing the turquoise in a timeless balance of metal and stone. The precision and symmetry showcase the artisan’s devotion to tradition, while the design’s bold presence ensures it remains as powerful today as it has been for centuries.

Worn as either a pendant or a pin, this piece is more than adornment—it is a living link to Navajo heritage. It embodies the artistry, symbolism, and resilience of a people whose jewelry is not just about beauty, but about carrying meaning, memory, and spirit with every wear.
