This necklace gets its namesake from the way it is made... The Traditional Way.

If you found yourself standing within the Four Sacred Mountains you would feel right at home.

Beautiful blue turquoise stones radiate the symbolism of the Blue World.

When the Holy People see this necklace they know the Five-Fingered being wearing it knows where they come from.

Two strands and two loops to represent all things male and female.

White heishi beads bring balance, and the color white represents the next world.
