Federico Jimenez- Signature Santa Fe Look! -Colorful Orange Spiny Oyster Shell-Sterling Naja Necklace
No Santa Fe'an/Southwestern collection is never complete without this signature symbol of the southwest! Because of both it's design & the Spiny Oyster's color, this is one of those necklaces that doesn't have to be huge to to be noticed. No, it's not over the top in size, nor is it super heavy in weight, but rather having a 'just enough' look that will be extremely comfortable to wear!
Lining the neckline & in the "Naja", are precisely sized round cuts of Spiny Oyster shell that match very evenly in size, due to using perfectly sized calibrated cuts of the shell. This is what contributes to the uniform look it has. They are somewhat chunky cuts, (Roughly a 1/2" round) & between these & it's energizing color, gives this the presence it has. Each section is connected by “O” rings, which helps it too fold easy for storage and or travel!(See 9th photo)
Even though the Naja is a symbol known to the southwest, this is a very 'contemporary' looking necklace that will look great in OR out of the southwest without making you feel like you have to only pair it with Native jewelry. Yes, it would look great, but not necessary.
Watch the color come to life by wearing it up against maybe an intense Cobalt-Peacock blue color or even a vibrant Kelly Green!! Your wardrobe color backdrop ideas are endless!

PLEASE READ BEFORE PURCHASING:
*****I do not consider myself a 'professional photographer" but I do try to give you photos that are 'realistic" in color, so you're not shocked, nor disappointed when you get the piece. I do however find that photographing anything with 'yellow' in it, (green & orange) can come up much more vivid than other colors,,so please take this into consideration & go through all photos to see any variation. In the photos with the grey background are closer in color than the photos with the darker background.
