Description: Today, the Navajo tribe creates the most well-known and sought-after Indian jewelry on the market. Their tradition of jewelry making dates back to the 19th century when the Navajos began to work with silver acquired from Spaniards. A history of migrations, trade, and cultural exchange contributes to its vibrancy. Earrings are one of the earliest forms of jewelry found in archaeological excavations in North America. Historically, earrings have been worn by both sexes among the southwest native peoples. Each turquoise nugget is accented by a leaf, tendril and rope edge, and are opposing. They are set on a solid foundation of sterling silver. The beauty of sterling silver is it can become dark and be brought back to a beautiful shine time after time by using a soft jewelry polishing cloth. Don't let the shine belie the fact that these are vintage earrings.Never out of style, Southwest jewelry is an investment in enjoyment to last a lifetime.A.htm#sthash.kgDmqr7x.dpuf Measurement= 2 1/8" tall by 1" wide Total Weight = 11.6 grams Questions???
