Signed Joan Slifka Navajo-Style Sterling Coral, Bone Pendant Necklace -16”, 1997
About the Item
Navajo-style master jeweler Joan Slifka began creating dramatic jewelry in the 1960s but didn’t consider herself a “real” jeweler until the 1980s when she began her business. A departure from her oversized, chunky designs using crosses and hearts, this more delicate piece still incorporates her signature use of semi-precious stones set in sterling, and is perfect for everyday wear. It even includes an easy-to-fasten magnetic closure for easy fastening and unfastening.
16” pendant necklace consisting of two different kinds of sterling chain; 1 ¼” fixed round pendant featuring oval coral cabochon atop a larger round polished bone cabochon, both set in scalloped Navajo-style filigree setting. Magnetic rear closure. Stamped and signed.

- Cartier Style Emerald Cut Sapphire Crystal Brooch, Ear Crawler Demi Parure–1950sLocated in Tucson, AZThough it is over a half century old, this exquisite earring and brooch set is as chunky, relevant and wearable as any modern costume jewelry. Fiery and brilliant, their centerpieces are their single emerald-cut crystals, which resemble Cartier gemstones. The surrounding light and dark blue faceted rhinestones gather and reflect further light for a set of remarkable glamour and substance. Curved ear crawlers featuring ¾” emerald-cut crystals surrounded by 4 and 6 mm faceted blue rhinestones; clip backs. Matching solitaire brooch with 1 1/8” wide emerald-cut crystal surrounded by 4 mm faceted blue rhinestones; rollover safety clasp. **please note: when light is shone through from behind, brooch crystal is a brighter, more vibrant blue than large crystals in earrings, but this color difference is virtually eliminated when brooch is worn. This suggests the earrings and brooch were a mismatched set...Category
