These lovely inlaid cardinal earrings were created by Sammy & Esther Guardian, one of the best Zuni husband and wife teams working today. The artists are especially well-known for their inlaid birds and other animals. Their work is incredibly detailed and well made.
Of all the Zuni artists who make these type of earrings, I think the Guardians' work is the best for the price!
The earrings features beautifully inlaid cardinal and flowers - abalone, turquoise, coral and other semi-precious stones & shells.
The earrings measures 1-1/8 inch long, not counting the ear-wires by 3/4 inch wide. Each earring weighs about 4 grams.
Brand new and in perfect condition. Please ignore the reflections that can be seen in the highly polished silver. Gift box and Certificate of Authenticity included with your purchase.
