About the Item

A wonderful vintage Benny & Valerie Aldrich pin with turquoise, coral, spiny oyster, and sugilite set in sterling silver. Stamped "ALDRICH" This pin is in like-new condition and has not been previously worn. I am its original owner. An opportunity to acquire a vintage example of the Aldrich's work in pristine original condition. Benny & Valerie Aldrich are a husband-and-wife team who have been creating jewelry for over 40 years. The Aldrichs were pioneers in incorporating faceted gemstones into southwestern-style jewelry in the early 1970s. Intricate inlays in vivid hues are a hallmark of their artistry, jewelry that marries traditional southwestern themes with contemporary colors and craftsmanship.
