Federico Jimenez~ Zuni Pueblo Style Sleeping Beauty Turquoise Cluster 925 "Ladder" Earrings 4-1/8"
Elegantly long & luscious,these will look phenomenal on anyone who wears them!Short hair,long hair,blonde or brunette,don’t matter with these!
Federico pays homage to this classic look that is traditionally known to the Zuni people & kept this style within tradition..They are made with a bright blue & very vivid selection of Sleeping Beauty turquoise that is used so often when a artist wants a uniform color when they are doing cluster work,since this mine of turquoise doesn’t vary much in color.The turquoise isn’t treated like you find so much in today’s SW jewelry,so your going to get a quality made earring all the way around!
Each stone is not only set with the same tone in color,but also the same size,which is what lends themselves to the precise “Ladder” style they are given.The dangles are hammered flat & have a mirrored polished finish.
