Radiant and unforgettable, this handcrafted Navajo necklace features vibrant spiny oyster shell, skillfully set in sterling silver by Navajo artisans. Each piece of spiny oyster tells a story as bold and colorful as the Southwestern skies.
Spiny oyster is more than a striking material—it's a symbol of resilience and sacred connection. Harvested from the warm waters of the Gulf of California, this shell has been used in Native jewelry and adornment for centuries. For the Navajo, it represents life, fertility, emotional strength, and transformation—blending the fluid energy of the sea with the grounding strength of the desert.
Energetically, spiny oyster is said to ignite creativity, awaken passion, and support emotional healing. Its vibrant colors stimulate the lower chakras—especially the sacral and solar plexus—encouraging confidence, vitality, and joy. It pairs beautifully with sterling silver, which enhances clarity and acts as a mirror to the soul.
This necklace is both earthy and elegant, perfect as a bold centerpiece or a sacred token of inner fire. Whether worn for ceremony or everyday expression, it honors Indigenous craftsmanship while empowering you to walk with color, purpose, and pride.
From ocean to mesa, from heart to hands—wear the story. Carry the flame.
