Featured in this lot is a pair of Hopi Sterling Silver Earrings and a pair of Zuni Sterling Silver Turquoise Earrings. The Hopi sterling silver earrings feature the Hopi symbol for 'whirlwind' which brings rain clouds. Hopi Jewelry stands out against Zuni and Navajo through its absence of stonework. These pieces are commonly made from Sterling Silver and often feature detailed Native American symbols. The Zuni sterling silver earrings feature petit point size turquoise stones in a floral design with silver beads. The Zuni jewelry makers are known primarily for their intricate stonework designs. Stones for these pieces are cut down and shaped for placement in precise and intricate designs. Both pair of earrings are in very nice vintage condition with rich patina throughout, and reflect the artistry and heritage of Puebloan jewelry from the Southwest US. Weight unavailable.
