DESCRIPTION:
Excellent craftsmanship is shown throughout this amazing pair of earrings! This piece of Native American jewelry is Navajo hand crafted by artist Genevieve Francisco out of genuine sterling silver and real Coral stones. A total of FOUR stones (TWO in each earring) are delicately set into hand cut bezel settings while custom silverwork can be seen creating a beautiful feather pattern that accents the stones for a gorgeous finish. Feathers are symbols of prayers, marks of honor or sources of ideas. They represent the Creative Force. The earrings are hallmarked and stamped .925 (sterling).
Corals are known to be very soothing and very protective. Coral is of an organic origin; it is the skeletal remains of marine animals called Coral Polyps. Colonies of these tiny creatures build branching structures as they grow, gradually forming reefs and atolls.
