JChronicles Natural Turquoise Stone Squash Blossom Navajo Statement Necklace, Vintage American Naja Jewelry

I purchased SQ-657 in 2017. I’m coming back for more. I love this necklace and get compliments every time I wear it. This thing has some weight to it, in a good way. It definitely doesn’t feel like some of the chinchy made version out there, I know, I’ve had some. Clasps are good, stands are strong, each “pendant” is metal with beautiful detail, and no stones have fallen out. The description says the stones are real turquoise, I can’t confirm that but the stones are beautiful and mine have variation and veining in them.I do believe the beads are plastic but have a metal look to them. I had to run my nails across them a few times to confirm.Highly recommended. The only thing I would say is THIS YEAR (Year 5 of owning it), metal ring for the dangly middle stone broke. Still usable and still beautiful. In 2017 they didn’t have all of these styles. So when I looked up my old order to purchase a Christmas gift, I add multiple new styles to my chart. Some for my daughter (so she’ll quit stealing mine 💕) and some for me.

Stones are fake, twisted so badly it took me ages to fix, nearly returned it

I was looking forward to this piece. When it arrived I was disappointed in the stones. They are sculpted (not as shown)and the color is all same but not in a natural way. Some turquoise stones are dyed to give them the expected color. These appear to be dyed all the same color ( not as pictured)

Being the tight-wad I am, I have refused to pay $3500 for the squash that I REALLY want and after searching high and low this brand seems to have the best quality faux squash blossoms out there. This is the second one of the JChronicles brand I have purchased (the last one did meet it’s demise at the hand of my very mischievous toddler who thought it would look better outside on one of the dogs than on me) but I’ve been impressed with the overall quality and appearance of both of them, with this one being my favorite of the two. I received one with some really nice stone variation and coloring that helps it look a more genuine and quality. I’ve gotten quite a few compliments on it already and I’ve chosen it over my Navajo crafted (smaller and less flashy) squash several times because it really is a statement piece that adds a lot to an outfit.

I don’t usually leave reviews but not only I loved the squash blossom, I loved the service. I hadn’t noticed that I ordered it twice, and instead of just charging for it twice, the seller made sure to call me a couple of times to ask me if it was an error. I loved that and felt so graceful. The necklace itself is so pretty. Of course it is not an original swish blossom but I wear it with my white dresses and vintage clothes and it looks amazing. I have gotten many compliments. It is perfect for the price and it is exactly the size I had been looking for.

This was such poor quality and really disappointing for the price. The beads are wooden and not silver and the necklace is very flimsy and poorly constructed.

The necklace looks great but the quality is poor. The part in the center broke the very first time I wore it. My husband was able to fix it but I was disappointed in the quality.

This item is extremely fragile. The first time I received it, it was all in pieces. I sent it back and got a new one but the material of the item keeps braking. It is very beautiful so the broken parts can be forgiven to a certain point.
