This gorgeous pair of earrings is absolutely distinctive in each and every way! This piece of Native American jewelry is Navajo hand crafted by artist Etta Larry, out of authentic sterling silver and real Turquoise stones. This pair of earrings has a total of TWO stones (ONE in each earring) that are gently placed in hand cut bezel settings, while hand cut silver work creates a striking leaf design. Hand crafted silver, mini silver beads, and stamped flowers can be seen adding charm for a stunning finish. The earrings are sterling silver.

Turquoise is the birthstone of December. It is believed that turquoise tends to bring good fortune, strength and helps overcome illness. Turquoise got its name from the Levantine traders called Turks who brought the stone to Europe from Persia via Turkey centuries ago. Native Americans have prized turquoise since the time of the Aztecs, who mined it in New Mexico. The natural variations that occur in turquoise are part of its appeal and beauty.
