Beautiful vintage signed Nel J sterling silver turquoise dangle earrings, attributed to Navajo/Diné silversmith Nathaniel Johnson.
Each earring features a wonderful Southwestern figural bear design accented with a turquoise cabochon and a dangling sterling feather with turquoise and contrasting bead accents. Detailed stamped decoration gives these earrings lots of character.
Back is clearly stamped:
STERLING
Nel J.
Pair weighs approximately 21 grams total, as shown in photos.
Vintage pre-owned condition with natural patina, surface wear and oxidation consistent with age and use. I have left the silver unpolished to preserve the original patina. Please review all photos closely for condition and details.
