Sorry, I don’t know if I can link it since it’s paywalled, but the NY Times has an article about squash blossom necklaces today.

Good short article! Nice they included both the historic Slender Maker of Silver squash blossom necklace, and a gorgeous modern piece by Nanibaa Beck (Victor Becks daughter). I’d had not heard of her, but am impressed with her work. I really liked her modern take on squash blossom earrings:

I really loved the Nanibaa Beck squash. Such a sleek and modern take on the form, and the inlaid MOP with the turquoise is gorgeous. And that sweet little hummingbird, because we all know how much I like bird jewelry!
Nanibaa is very talented. @chicfarmer introduced me to her a couple years ago.
