Native American Earrings Orange Spiney Slab w/ Turquoise

A richly colorful set of Native American earrings, these are Santo Domingo Indian made using orange spiney oyster shell and an inlay of sky-blue turquoise as a base. The backs of these earrings are the reverse side of the spiney oyster shell, as naturally occurring. The turquoise has been cut into the front side, and inlaid. These earrings are unique because they have a deep natural curvature giving it a nice 3-dimensional feel (as depicted in the pictures). Finished with a sterling silver bead and French wire. Native American artist Matthew Coriz.
