FIRM ON PRICE!

THE ARTIST:

Gallup-based Navajo artisan Leander Tahe is an artist who shows no limit to what he can create. This highly qualified and remarkably creative artisan moves effortlessly from producing undeniable traditional Navajo pieces like those seen in these earrings—to turning completely modern with unexpected, contemporary designs. No matter the direction he takes, Leander pours his whole heart and soul into every piece, no matter the size, no matter the price. His precision, meticulous attention to detail, impeccable repousse work, and striking oxidized finishes are immediately apparent, so you won’t need to wonder how long he’s been at it making jewelry because you will be able to see the years of experience and the distinction that set him apart from beginners. Since Leander has his own unmistakable signature look, once you become familiar with his jewelry, you’ll be able to spot his work each & every single time.

THE EARRINGS:

Designed as non-dangling, large concho earrings, these have a luscious statement. Yet despite their noticeable size, Leander’s extraordinary workmanship and meticulous finishing easily override their scale.

Designed with a scalloped perimeter that gently softens their appearance, he employed three distinct stamps he found fitting, each following the circular form for balanced visual interest. Thanks to the sterling gauge chosen, they maintain a comfortable, wearable weight that won’t pull at the lobes, all while delivering that unmistakable Leander Navajo charm!

These are the perfect answer to pair with anything Leander makes, oxidized sterling Navajo Pearl necklaces & or any other traditionally designed-oxidized jewelry!

In order to give you close up photos so I can provide you with all the detail, can tend to make the item look GIGANTIC & everything is more magnified & exaggerated than in actuality..

***I normally show earrings on the ear, but due to recent eye surgery, I apologize, but I will have to take one after I heal. I’ll do my best to remember to do this! So in the meantime, in order to get an idea of how big these are, if you have a tape measure you can take that measurement & compare to my given measurements above.***
