Delbert Arviso, Vintage, Circa 2000's, Pendant, Kingman, Navajo, 2 1/2"

This vintage Navajo pendant by renowned silversmith Delbert Arviso reflects both cultural symbolism and masterful craftsmanship. Handmade in the early 2000s, the pendant features a traditional Naja form; a crescent-shaped design deeply rooted in Navajo jewelry tradition, representing protection and beauty. At its center hangs a striking Kingman turquoise stone, known for its brilliant blue hue and natural matrix, elegantly set in a fine sawtooth bezel. The pendant’s oxidized silver surface showcases hand-etched cross-hatch patterns that give the piece a time-worn, earthy character. Arviso’s careful balance of bold form and organic texture highlights his distinctive artistic style.
