Handcrafted by a female Santo Domingo (Kewa) Pueblo artisan, this striking multi-strand necklace combines radiant yellow serpentine, deep black jet, and bright turquoise accents in a design that feels both bold and timeless. The dramatic contrast between the golden yellow and rich black creates a stunning visual balance, while the turquoise details add flashes of sky-blue brilliance throughout the strands. Jean Marie commissioned this necklace directly from the artisan exclusively for our collection, making it a truly special piece that reflects both heritage and individuality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach material tells its own story. Yellow serpentine is prized for its warm, sunlit color and has long been admired for its connection to energy, vitality, and renewal. Black jet, a natural fossilized wood treasured by Native artisans for generations, symbolizes protection, grounding, and strength. The turquoise accents bring another layer of meaning, representing harmony, healing, and the sacred relationship between sky and earth. Together, these materials create a beautiful balance of light and shadow, warmth and stability, making the necklace feel both powerful and uplifting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe art of heishi jewelry remains one of the oldest continuous jewelry-making traditions in North America. Every bead is individually cut, drilled, strung, and polished by hand, requiring extraordinary patience and skill. The layered strands drape gracefully, making this necklace easy to wear with everything from a simple white blouse and denim to a flowing dress or tailored jacket. Its bold Southwestern palette allows it to make a statement while remaining remarkably versatile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis necklace tells a story of desert landscapes, sacred materials, and generations of Native artistry. More than jewelry, it is a wearable expression of heritage, craftsmanship, and the enduring beauty of Santo Domingo tradition.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNumber of Strands: 4\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eLength 17\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMade in New Mexico, USA\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PAX PHILOMENA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53672568062271,"sku":"YELLOWSERPENTINEBLACKJETNECKLACESD-OS","price":495.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2529\/6354\/files\/YellowSerpentineBlackJet.png?v=1781556431","url":"https:\/\/paxphilomena.com\/products\/yellow-serpentine-black-jet-and-turquoise-necklace-santo-domingo","provider":"PAX PHILOMENA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
