Beverly Etsate, Necklace, Earring, Multi-Stone, Zuni Handmade, 18"
Description
This exquisite necklace and earring set by Beverly Etsate is a brilliant example of Zuni handmade artistry, featuring striking multi-stone inlay on a sterling silver setting. Each piece showcases a finely detailed mudhead figure, created with hand cut stones including red coral, turquoise, mother of pearl, and jet, set against a deep brown background for dramatic contrast. The main pendant is complemented by silver dangles, adding movement and elegance to the design. The necklace includes three large oval inlay panels, each bordered with classic silverwork, while the matching earrings mirror the central motif on a slightly smaller scale. The craftsmanship and symmetry across the entire set highlight Etsate’s refined technique and deep cultural inspiration.
