This fabulous vintage statement necklace by Kewa artist David Fletcher Garcia is a bold and beautifully balanced piece that showcases exceptional Southwestern craftsmanship. The necklace features five rounded teardrop-shaped stations, each richly adorned with bezel set turquoise and branch coral stones accented by sculptural leaves, flowing vines, and classic raindrops. Three round links separate each station, creating graceful movement and continuity throughout the design. Seven millimeter bench beads paired with stamped melon beads add wonderful texture and dimension to the necklace, while the beaded portion is strung on durable beading wire and finished with a traditional hook and eye closure. Stamped DAVID F GARCIA on the back of the center station, this substantial necklace is an outstanding example of vintage Native artistry with timeless collector appeal.
Condition Note: the wire is a bit stiff on the beaded portion of the necklace. It still hangs well on the neck as shown in the last photo.
