These earrings feature a unique design with amber-colored square spondylus shells that dangle from triangular blue-green turquoise studs. The gemstones are meticulously set in very fine bezels, highlighting the intricate craftsmanship.

Designed for pierced ears, these earrings beautifully combine the warm tones of Spondylus shell with the cool hues of turquoise, creating a harmonious and eye-catching piece of wearable art.

When an item of jewelry does not display the name of the maker, and if the style of the item is what is normally recognized as traditional jewelry of the Diné of the Navajo Nation, we indicate that it was probably made by a Diné silversmith of the Navajo Nation.
