Official State Necklace of New Mexico
New Mexico designated the Native American squash blossom necklace as the official state necklace in 2011 (New Mexico also recognizes an official neck tie). All Cultural Heritage Symbols
Considered one of the most characteristic of Southwest Native American jewelry designs, the squash blossom necklace was not traditional until after the arrival of Europeans, when Navajo silversmiths adopted the crescent-shaped "naja" of the Spanish into their own artwork.
