Navajo made sterling silver turquoise chandelier earrings 。This exceptional necklace is a striking example of handmade Navajo silverwork, combining powerful symbolism, skilled craftsmanship, and unmistakable presence. Crafted in sterling silver, it features a rhythmic procession of Yei (Yeibichai) figures, sacred spiritual beings in Navajo tradition.
Yei figures are traditionally understood as Holy People, associated with healing, protection, balance, and harmony. Their repeated depiction across the necklace creates a sense of movement and unity, evoking the idea of a ceremonial dance and a continuous flow of spiritual energy. The imagery is both visually compelling and deeply rooted in Navajo cultural symbolism.
At the center of the necklace is a turquoise-set Yei figure, serving as the visual and symbolic focal point of the piece. Turquoise has long held special meaning in Navajo culture and is commonly associated with protection, life, renewal, and harmony with nature.
The necklace is marked and attributed to Monroe Ashley, a well-known Navajo silversmith known for bold figural designs and strong ceremonial imagery. The materials, construction, and overall character are consistent with mid-20th-century handmade Navajo jewelry, created in small numbers rather than large commercial runs.
