I love the necklace and would love to buy one. But before that I wanted to ask a question. I hope this doesn't come across stupid or ignorant but I'm not a native (I'm a Asian-American). And I know that there are many issues with cultural appropriation. So I wanted to know if it would be okay for me to wear the necklace or if it would be cultural appropriation? Again, I'm sorry if this sounds stupid or ignorant. I just wanted to make sure.

It is not cultural appropriation. I would see that as Cultural Appreciation because you would be wearing Native-made jewelry. It isn’t a sacred item and as long as it is not worn as a costume piece then it is fine :)
