JSG ESTATE LIQUIDATION

This lot of three distinctive beaded necklaces offers a compelling collection for lovers of Southwestern, bohemian, and world-bead jewelry. The most striking piece is a double-strand heishi trade bead necklace featuring multicolored disc beads in blue, red, green, tan, black, and burgundy — likely clay or stone heishi beads consistent with African or Native American-influenced trade bead traditions — terminating in a dramatic lariat-style drop with two carved amazonite or turquoise-colored stone focal pieces flanked by gold-tone metal beads and a looped bead tassel at the terminus. The carved rectangular focal stone displays incised linear motifs and measures approximately 1.5 inches, showing characteristics reminiscent of Egyptian revival or Pre-Columbian inspired carving. The second necklace is a multi-strand piece combining turquoise heishi beads, lapis lazuli oval cabochon stations, cobalt blue lapis rondelles, and accent beads in carnelian orange and hematite silver tones, finished with a silver-tone clasp. The third necklace is a delicate double-strand silver-tone chain adorned with hematite and black bead dangles and small silver charm accents. Condition is overall Good to Very Good; the heishi trade bead necklace shows expected surface wear and patina to the beads consistent with age and use, the gold-tone connector beads show minor tarnish, and the tassel end has some loose clustering of beads. The multi-strand turquoise and lapis necklace appears intact with no obvious breaks. The silver chain necklace shows light tarnish. All three pieces are wearable and display well.
