Yes I have one. I saw this style when traveling in Arizona but they were very expensive but love ❤️ it so I kept my eyes open and found one while looking for antique jewelry in a thrift store and I got it beautiful blue and silver design it was so cheap and as it was seniors day I got an extra 30% off the $149 asking. Vintage squash blossom. ❤️

Thank you for this video! I just purchased a vintage squash blossom and needed a little guidance on cleaning! The turquoise on mine is also more on the green side, and I absolutely love it! Yours is spectacular! And I absolutely believe in manifestation and patience. Squash Blossoms are very special treasures.

Congratulations on your find. My sister and mother were silversmiths. My mom passed away three years ago and I still have a squash blossom she made. My sister doesn’t do silver smithing anymore because she had lymphoma in her nose.

ABSOLUTELY Beautiful necklace. I went to a estate sale today; I found my first Native American Sterling and turquoise ring ever! It has a big stone, and fits me perfect. Also found two vintage Native American Cuffs bracelets made of Sterling- one has a beautiful turquoise drop shape stone, and the other bracelet has a labradorite oval stone. I am so happy with my finds.

I have a gorgeous one that my father made and gave to me before passing. It is not my normal style but I see it on you and think it really looks lovely and want to get mine out. I am wondering if you can give some more ideas on how to wear it or what to wear it with. The black top with denim bottom seems like a nice combination. Any other suggestions? I am also wondering if anyone has criticized you for cultural appropriation. I am a little concerned about that. I really want polish off my Squash Blossom necklace and get wearing it it is as it has mainly sat away for the past 15 years. Would love some more ideas on how to wear it.

How special that your father made it. I love wearing things from other cultures and do it often. To me it's a way of paying homage to beautiful things. I do sometimes have people comment about cultural appropriation but most people thank me for exposing the beauty of the pieces and I try to be very respectful and tasteful in the ways I wear them. I like wearing my squash blossom with a monotone outfit and have it be the statement piece. I will also wear it with caftans or dusters in a similar color. I like wearing it with a turtleneck or a v neck that it a little smaller than the necklace. In my most recent video I wear it with a knit caftan in the same color. I hope that helps and that you will polish it off and let it see the light of day. Thanks for watching.

Not sure if someone has already commented on this yet, but the horseshoe shaped pendant is called a naja. Native American artists copied it from a design on the Spanish horses' bridles.

@@TheDressUpMom No worries. I can be touchy when it comes to my ancestors. Forgive me too please. I finally bought one of my own. It's Morenci stoned I tend to love the blue hues. It's heavy. It's got the shorter blossom ends and lays flat, moves with me. I'm totally in love i want to sleep in it. 🙉 i uploaded a quickie so you can see it. Please view tell me what you think. I'll do a better vid later. It just came in today. 😄🙌🏼💙

I noticed that you seem to constantly be rubbing the turquoise. If it's natural turquoise, which it looks to be, you're going to make it greener and greener over time doing that. Just something to consider, since you mention that you like the color as it is.
