Had a 1k+ day today at a single thrift store- got a cut crystal and brass ice bucket, a few sterling necklaces including Tiffany, sterling knives and serving fork, and a 100yr old oak vanity. BUT- I have to post just the pics of this one item- A huge sand-cast silver Navajo Naja and Squash Blossom necklace- This was $15 in the costume jewelry area, away from the separate sterling area-

Here is a similar one that just sold, but mine has better workmanship, more weight, an older style of clasp and bench beads, as well as turquoise and more najas. A silver naja or squash blossom necklace had been on my thrift list for a long time.
 
Holy smokes! Thats awesome! Thats a score right there! Congrats! I want to find on someday. Always wanted to buy for my mom.
 
Well damn. That’s all I can say. Did it have any marking or just recognize it.
 
No markings. I've been looking for this one!
 
Wish I could get the maker, some online have a similar cast.
 
I'm jealous, awesome pick.
 
Awesome piece of Native American art. Looks like “old pawn” the way the clasp was made. Congratulations!

Here is a pic of a Squash Blossom necklace that was given to me a few months ago.
