This ain't Texas, ain't no hold 'em, So lay your cards down, down, down, down
So park your Lexus and throw your keys up ,Stick around, 'round, 'round, 'round, 'round
And I'll be damned if I can't slow dance with you, Come pour some sugar on me, honey too
It's a real life boogie and a real life hoedown, Don't be a b****, come take it to the floor now
"TEXAS HOLD 'EM" by Beyoncé

THE EARRINGS
For all you cowgirls that prefer turquoise boots rather than glass slippers, you'll be putting your best foot forward, while dancing to Beyoncé's 'TEXAS HOLD 'EM' ! These will complete ANY western attire & would be the perfect earring to wear for those who do all those YouTube /Instagram reels that are out there! They are traditionally made, but very 2024!!
Fashionably designed with dominating cuts of vivid blue Sleeping Beauty turquoise and pink Rhodonite, both sets of earrings are made with the "Cowgirl" in mind.. The material is all hand cut and shaped by Charles and then carefully mosaic inlaid atop of a clay colored "Pipestone" backing (Design 1) and white and black "Snowflake Serpentine" (design 2) .The boot heels are Black Jet(Fossilized Coal)
Because of their thickness,these do have a tad of weight to them,so please go over the 'combined weights" below before purchasing just to be sure you can handle that weight, since I do not refund for this reason. I supply all the info you'll need, so I leave it up to the buyer to know what weight they can tolerate.

THE ARTISAN:CHARLES BIRD
30 Year old Charles is a Kewa Puebloan artist whose determined to stand apart from the rest. Having been inspired by his numerous award winning mother "Jolene Bird", who Charles works very closely with to this day,you might say that Charles is a "Non-Conformist" when it comes to doing things his own way, which are clearly witnessed in his jewelry. Being blessed with an artistic eye for design, his designs can be somewhat abstract & refuses to do the same thing, the same 'ol way. He loves doing asymmetrical designs, that are what many would consider 'mismatched', but this is the signature look that has his name attached & loves creating pieces this way!
When he's not grinding,& shaping stones & shells to enter into shows, he spends time practicing Jiu Jitsu, which he has earned not only 2 silver metals, but has honorably taken home the gold metal award as well!
What you'll get from Charles is traditional Puebloan work that has been passed on from generation to generation, but with a contemporary feel.
