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.
