A charming pair of vintage Southwestern silver earrings, believed to date to the 1940s and possibly of Hopi origin. Featuring beautiful Mediterranean red coral cabochons surrounded by distinctive circular silverwork, these earrings have wonderful vintage character and timeless appeal.
Each earring showcases a smooth, polished red coral cabochon, displaying rich, deep red coloring. The coral is secured in a decorative sawtooth bezel, adding texture and beautifully framing the vibrant stone.
The surrounding silver features an unusual swirling, concentric design, with gracefully curved lines that create a lovely sense of movement. The softly aged silver and naturally developed patina highlight the dimensional details and give the earrings an appealing vintage appearance.
Measuring 7/8 inch in diameter and weighing just 5 grams for the pair, these earrings offer a beautiful combination of traditional Southwestern styling and comfortable proportions.
The maker and tribal affiliation remain unidentified, although the design and construction suggest a possible 1940s Hopi attribution. The age and origin have not been independently authenticated.
