Native American jewelry artisan Kirk Smith, or Kiyaa Alani Shush Dine (his Dine tribe name, meaning “towering house bear people clan”), created a long-lasting legacy in a tragically short life. His work is highly regarded for its quality craftsmanship and his use of stones of only the highest quality and richest coloring. Kirk’s pieces, have long been coveted and collectible, with their value only increasing as a result of his unexpected, early death. 

This necklace was beautifully hand crafted.  It has a gorgeous Roystone turquoise that has beautiful tones of green, brown and blue. You can definitely see the high quality of this turquoise. It also has a beautiful hand crafted flower and a leaf to make this a unique and stunning piece.

Weighs 58 grams
Measures 18 inches long
Turquoise measures 45.5mm x 30.7.  The whole pendant measures 71.9mm x 45.2mm.

I had this professionally tested for silver and steam cleaned to remove anything from previous wear. I did not have it polished as many people like the natural patina.  Will be shipped fully insured with a signature confirmation.

**I live in Arizona and I get the opportunity to purchase unique and beautiful pieces such as this one from Navajo Native Americans**
