These fine earrings were expertly crafted with attention to detail in the Zuni tradition and are in very good vintage condition (see ALL photos for an accurate detailed depiction). This pair has sterling silver ear posts and ear clutch/nuts that are in good working order.

These classic vintage ZUNI Sterling Silver and hand cut and polished Petit Point Turquoise earrings created by a skilled silver and stone artisan would make an outstanding addition to any Twentieth Century Native American ZUNI Silver and Turquoise Jewelry, Petit Point Turquoise or Historic American Cultural Arts and Crafts collection. We have been involved in the design and creation of contemporary jewelry at the undergraduate and post graduate level since 1967. In 1975 we opened a gallery of hand wrought fine art contemporary jewels and have since handled thousands of unique, one of a kind and limited edition pieces crafted predominantly by American artisans with a special emphasis on Native American Art. Will be determined upon request.
We believe our photos and description to be an accurate testament. Thus, ALL SALES ARE FINAL. Thanks for looking and good luck.
