Vintage, Circa 1950's, Earrings, Lone Mountain Turquoise, Navajo, 1 1/16"

Description

These exquisite vintage Navajo earrings from the 1950s beautifully embody the artistry and tradition of early Native silversmithing. Each earring features hand-cut Lone Mountain turquoise stones, prized for their vivid blue color and fine matrix, carefully set in hand-scalloped sterling silver bezels. The organic, cluster-style arrangement highlights the natural beauty and individuality of each stone, reflecting the handcrafted nature of mid-century Navajo jewelry. The textured silver background adds depth and dimension, creating a striking contrast with the vibrant turquoise. Finished with secure sterling silver screw backs, these earrings capture the elegance and authenticity of the era. Both timeless and bold, they represent a true celebration of Navajo craftsmanship and the enduring legacy of turquoise in Native art.
