Vintage Sterling Turquoise Native American Signed Cross Pendant & 24” Chain 925

P-90

This beautiful vintage cross necklace features a handcrafted sterling silver turquoise cross pendant paired with a 925 Italy sterling box chain, creating a timeless and wearable piece with strong Southwestern character.

The cross is set with five vibrant turquoise stones in traditional serrated bezels, including a round center stone and elongated turquoise cabochons that give the design balance and visual depth. The silver surface shows hand-tooled texturing and subtle sunburst line work, details that speak to artisan craftsmanship rather than mass production.

The pendant is signed on the back (partially legible) and marked STERLING, a detail commonly seen on vintage artisan-made pieces from the late 1970s–1980s. The natural patina and hand-finished look add authenticity and warmth that collectors appreciate.

The necklace is finished with a 24” Italian sterling silver box chain, stamped 925 Italy, allowing the cross to hang perfectly at mid-chest—ideal for everyday wear or layering.

This is a meaningful, wearable vintage piece that blends faith, craftsmanship, and classic turquoise style.
