Description

Vintage Heishi Natural Horn Beads (Necklace) from Santo Domingo–Zuni (1968-1970s). My grandmother was an antique dealer in Cimarron, New Mexico, who traded with Pat Keho during the late 1960s and early 1970s. I inherited several items from her estate, including these natural horn Heishi beads, still strung on their original cotton threads. I have included photos. There are 20 strands, ¼ inch wide, for each bead (they are perfectly measured). They are in perfect condition and well cared for. Everything original. Kindest Regards, WiNima Pauline
