About the Item
Kitty earrings cast sterling silver Melanie Yazzie dangle cats contemporary
Sterling Silver casting Melanie A. Yazzie (Navajo-Diné) is a highly regarded multimedia artist known for her printmaking, paintings, sculpture, and jewelry designs. She has exhibited, lectured, and taught throughout the United States, Mexico, Asia, New Zealand, and Australia. Her work is in important museum collections worldwide. Glenn Green Galleries, her international representatives, collaborate in creating these jewelry designs that are made in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Figures of animals, insects, and other beings are meant to protect and give strength to the wearer. The winged female figures, called pollinators, are named for her personal Navajo clans, the Salt Water and Bitter Water. They serve as symbols of empowerment and the possibility of creating good things. Yazzie sees these as her protectors. In her artwork, she follows the Navajo philosophy of seeking beauty, balance, and harmony. Some of the pendants/enhancers are shown on strands of beads that are sold separately. Contact the gallery for further information.

22 Karat Gold Diamond and Pearl Drop Earring Handcrafted with Multi-Color Enamel
By Gems Paradise
Located in Jaipur, IN
22 Karat Gold Diamond and Pearl Drop Earring Handcrafted with Multi-Color Enamel Work
This mesmerizing Mughal era hand-made polki diamond and pearl long earring is exquisite. The top part of the earring is formed of perfectly cut special shape flat polki diamond solitaires set in gold bezel setting surround the bigger center canine shape polki solitaire diamond in bezel setting. The polki diamonds together form a 6-motif flower with a small addition of round polki diamond adjoining the bottom polki to add more depth and curve to the flower pattern, making it more of a traditional Indian heritage floral design. The outer gold on the earring gallery is covered with a thin line of green enamel work, making them look more magical.
The bottom half of the earring is formed by a solitaire south sea round pearl drop held securely by a small red round bead and a gold cap of blush red enamel on top and a small red round bead at the bottom. The top and bottom parts are adjoined with double round loops for more movement of the pearl when worn.
The back of these meena earrings just like any other royal Mughal pieces, is what differentiates and adds variety to these royal earring...
