Sterling Silver Feather Earrings with Turquoise – Handmade by Navajo Artist Allen Barney
This exquisite sterling silver earring set is a stunning example of traditional Navajo craftsmanship, handmade by skilled Navajo artist Allen Barney. Featuring natural turquoise, a gemstone deeply rooted in Native American culture, these earrings embody both heritage and timeless beauty.
The Navajo people have been pioneers in silversmithing since the 1850s, and their jewellery is celebrated worldwide for its distinctive style and masterful techniques. Historically, silver has been the dominant visual element, with gemstones serving as accents. However, contemporary Navajo designs blend silver and stone in unique ways, reflecting the artist’s skill, inspiration, and vision.
Navajo jewellery incorporates a variety of traditional techniques, including intricate stamp work, delicate beading, and fine engraving. Turquoise and shells have been central to their designs for centuries, with other natural stones such as coral, lapis lazuli, onyx, and jet, as well as man-made opals, being introduced over time to expand the artistic possibilities.
Every piece of authentic Navajo jewellery carries a rich cultural significance, making it more than just an accessory—it is a work of art that tells a story of heritage, craftsmanship, and tradition.
