Expect plenty of compliments while wearing this stunning pair of earrings! This piece of Native American jewelry is Zuni hand crafted by artist Vickie Johnson, out of genuine sterling silver and real Turquoise needlepoint stones.

Turquoise is the birthstone of December. It is believed that turquoise tends to bring good fortune, strength and helps overcome illness. Turquoise got its name from the Levantine traders called Turks who brought the stone to Europe from Persia via Turkey centuries ago. Native Americans have prized turquoise since the time of the Aztecs, who mined it in New Mexico. The natural variations that occur in turquoise are part of its appeal and beauty.
