LONG & HUGE - Vintage Zuni Pueblo -Tear Drop Shape -Petit Point Turquoise- Chandelier Shoulder Sweeper Fringe Earrings- 5"!

$1,175.00

You may feel a little like Zuni Royalty when you wear these!!! Unflippinly gorgeous,these super lengthy 5" long statement earrings are made in a time consuming signature petit point cluster style only known to the Zuni people.

Anchored from a small 4 stone top is a large tear drop shape with a smaller mirrored tear drop cluster that dangles in the center.Precisely matching in size & color are little tiny,tiny 2.5 mm hand cut cabs of Sleeping Beauty turquoise that follow the tear drop shape that are then placed in their own hand made serrated bezels. This is the beauty of Zuni jewelry is for the fact that everything, down to every little fine little detail is still done by hand & their work especiially,deserves appreciation for all the time & love that goes into their jewelry.

Contributing to their "Over the Top-Shouldersweeper-Chandelier" are fringy dangles that form a "V". On the dangles only,each cab of turquoise lay inside a tear drop shape wire desgn that only adds to the time to make.(See photos) The dangles range from 1" to as long as 2"(center) long & go from a 3 stone(Outer) ,to 4,to 5,to 6 & finally a 7 stone layout in the center & repeats itself from the left to the right or vise versa.

If you appreciate Zuni jewelry as I do,these then these are a no-brainer! Vintage Native American jewelry has become so collectible,where you'll find woman in the most urban cosmopolitan cities wearing pieces as if they're on fashion runways! These are truly a sight for the eyes,super sexy on & a valuable piece of Native American history.
