Turquoise Earrings

Sterling Silver & Turquoise. 3/4" long x 5/8 wide. A contemporary Navajo artist, Jeanette Dale learned silversmithing from her mother but developed a traditional style all her own.
Jeanette's pieces are recognizable for her distinctive combination of silverwork and beautiful natural stones. Preferring the traditional Navajo style with heavy, deep stamping and high polishes, she still follows her first employer's advice: to leave a mark to show the jewelry was handmade.
