This simple little necklace is one from Wings’s private collection, made years ago by one of the Pueblo’s children. Strung on simple fishing line, it features spiraled metal tube beads with a coppery glow. Half-way down the length of the necklace, they begin alternating with rough-polished chip beads of spiny oyster shell in purple and white, centered by a single square bead of sky-blue Arizona turquoise with a silvery-black pyrite matrix. Necklace is roughly 18″ in total length. Full view shown below.
