Kingman Turquoise Half Hoop Earrings

Fay and Murray Hannaweeka have been making jewelry for 40 plus years now. Renowned Zuni silversmith Horace Iule as well as Murray's mother taught him the craft. He used to help her with the buffing. Intricate sterling silver bezels hold precious Kingman turquoise stones, handmade by Murray in the traditional petit point or needle point way. Fay patiently grinds all the small colorful Kingman turquoise stones in these approximately 1 3/4" long, 1/8" wide and 1" deep lightweight half-hoop earrings for pierced ears. Signed by the artists.
