A Navajo tab turquoise necklace is a beautiful and traditional style of Native American jewelry, often featuring polished, flat or slab-like pieces of natural turquoise (called "tabs") strung together, sometimes with heishi beads (small, tubular beads) or other accents. These necklaces highlight the vibrant blue-green hues of turquoise, a stone deeply significant in Navajo culture symbolizing happiness, luck, health, and protection.
