The naja is a crescent-shaped piece that is often worn alone as a pendant or as the center piece of a  squash blossom necklace in Southwestern Indian jewelry.

The word naja is the Navajo word for crescent. Navajo Indian silversmiths began incorporating the naja design into their jewelry. The Navajo were the main Indian tribe that made the najas. but they were also made by some Pueblo tribes as well.

The chain of this necklace is made of three strands of beads. with the naja pendant and cross drop in center.
