Southwest Artisan- LEO FEENEY- Premium Quality Sleeping Beauty Turquoise /Red Mediterranean Coral- 925 Cluster Earrings- 2-7/8"
ABOUT THE ARTIST:
Having once teamed with renowned SW artist DON LUCAS",these 2 branched away from each other years ago ,but have maintained similarities in style.. Leo comes from a era where only the finest SW materials are used & most sought out after for any jeweler that started back in the day.. And when you come from this era,it's hard to settle for inferior,stabilized turquoise that you see so much of in today's market & online. (You pay for what you get in this business!)
One thing Leo is widely known for, is by putting a non-traditional twist to SW jewelry & that's by adding stones known to southwest jewelry,but with the addition of vibrantly colored faceted semi-precious gems,which give his pieces a more top notch & very glamorous look to SW jewelry!! Anything of Leo's is HIGHLY collectible & sold in higher end galleries/stores.

DESCRIPTION:
Made in a fabulous cluster style, these are designed with a choice pick of premium cuts of vivid Sleeping Beauty turquoise & red Mediterranean Coral. Both of these stones have jumped in value & more & more are being put on the 'rare' list, since the mine closed down some years back & Coral cannot be fished out any longer. They are made in a dangle drop style where the stones sit in a serrated bezel atop of a sterling base. Beading & filigree wire act as the art work that surround the stones.
Unlike many SW pieces, these are not over the top in length,nor in weight,but what these do have is an unmatched 'quality' !! Wear these with your other Sleeping Beauty OR Coral pieces!
