Vintage Zuni carved turtle fetish earrings! Each earring consists of a detail hand carved stone turtle strung on a solid bead wire with silver beads above and below the turtle. The artist uses a larger 5mm bead at the bottom along with two (2) 3mm silver beads and two (2) 3mm beads above the turtle. The artist bends each end of the bead wire to create a hoop connecting an old clip/clasp type ear hook to the top hoop. The turtles measure approximately 7/16" tall by 11/16" across by 7/16" wide.

Each earring measures 1 5/8" by 11/16" across which includes the ear hook. They weigh approximately 2.2 grams each (4.4 grams for a set). Both are unsigned with Sterling Silver beads and ear hooks. I'm not sure what the stone is, but believe it may be alabaster with black jet eyes? Beautiful hand crafted vintage turtle fetish earrings!  $29.95
