JAW-DROPPING SQUASH BLOSSOM!

This is the sort of one-of-a-kind find that makes you think you must’ve done something right in a former life. The stunning statement squash blossom necklace is a vintage creation by renowned Zuni artisan duo Maryann and Felix Chavez featuring a dozen coral cluster “blossoms” on a double strand of polished desert pearls and centered with a statement-sized naja boasting more than 70 coral cabochons. The squash itself is a covetable collector, but it gets even better – there is a matching pair of coral squash dangle earrings!
