Ear ornament - Phyllis Coonsis

The hand-crafted silver earrings are a goldsmith’s commission by Phyllis Coonsis or Phyllis Laate from the Zuni Pueblo in New Mexico. They come from well-known female artists of the Zuni tribe who produced superb handcrafted jewelry. Since the earrings are only stamped on the earhooks, they were additionally professionally inspected for silver by the master goldsmith. He confirms to me that the drop components are also made entirely of silver 925. Here: large two-part earrings with hinged ear wires in silver 925, from which hang large rosettes of lavender-red ancient Mediterranean coral, individually set. These are inlaid with truly cut coral drops between knotted settings and surrounding silver discs as a edge finish. An elaborate goldsmith’s work in very good, well-maintained condition. Rarely available in Europe. Shipping is in a new jewelry case / jewelry pouch.
