Spiny Oyster:

Spiny Oyster is a vibrant shell material commonly found in orange, red, and purple hues, with rare yellow variations. The colors are influenced by the mollusks' diet and the water's depth and temperature. It can be distinguished from coral by the white variations in its shell. Predominantly sourced from the Sea of Cortez (Gulf of California), Spiny Oyster is used extensively in Native American jewelry. Read More

About Marilyn Platero's Navajo Pearls

Navajo pearls by Marilyn Platero are a stunning blend of traditional style and contemporary craftsmanship. Known for her impeccable attention to detail, Marilyn strings her pearls on foxtail chain and finishes the ends with soldered clasps for added durability. Her use of machine-made beads provides a uniform and consistent appearance compared to handmade options. The use of machines also allows her to create pearls that range in size from 4mm. Unlike other machine-made beads, Marilyn's have a substantial weight and feel, adding to their quality and appearance. Her beads are oxidized and buffed by hand by Navajo artist Bronson Belone.

Understanding Our Measurements

Necklace lengths are measured from end to end, including the clasp. For necklaces featuring extension chains, the length is measured from the clasp to the shortest option. There for if an extension length is listed it is in addition to the listed necklace length, allowing for adjustable sizing.
