DESCRIPTION:

Expect plenty of compliments while wearing this stunning pair of earrings! This piece of Native American jewelry is Navajo overlay hand crafted by artist Geneiveve Jones, out of authentic sterling silver and 12k Gold fill. Overlay is a process that utilizes at least two layers of sterling silver. One layer forms the foundation, while the second is used to design the individual detailed overlay. In this pair of earrings, the second layer forms a marvelous Eagle design for a gorgeous finish. In Native American beliefs, the eagle is the master of the sky; he is considered to be a carrier of prayers. Many of the Indian Nations admire the eagle for bravery and special connections to the creator. The earrings are stamped sterling and hallmarked.
