These Native American handcrafted sterling silver earrings were recently obtained from my favorite little pawn shop in Gallup, New Mexico. All the jewelry from this pawn shop was pawned by Native Americans living in the local area. Gallup is the "pawn capital" of the Southwest, close to the Navajo and Zuni reservations, and you must make it a point to visit sometime.

Back to the earrings: They are very long, yet lightweight, measuring 2-7/8" long, not counting the earwires, and weighing 5.4 grams each. Hallmarked by the artist on one earrings and stamped Sterling on the other. I don't recognize the hallmark. The exact age of the earrings is unknown. Excellent condition.
