For the A:Shiwi (The People) corn is called the Mother as it is a main crop that emerges from beautiful Mother Earth. Zuni jeweler Tracey Bowekaty shares that corn is used in "many ways, in cooking, to make Tamales, and in ceremony." Elegantly carved, these spiny oyster shell corn earrings for pierced ears will make a subtle yet lasting impression. Set into sterling silver with colorful inlays from coral, turquoise, malachite and jet, these lightweight earrings measure about 7/8" long, 3/4" wide and 1/8" deep. Signed by the artist who started making corn jewelry when her first son was born in 1992.
