Native American tribes have been making earrings since long before Europeans arrived in North America. They would use bits of stone, shell, and bone to create pendants and beads. By the time European horses were introduced to North America, these earring designs had become so heavy they had to be removed while riding.
As centuries passed and new materials and design techniques made their way into Native American culture, Native American earrings started to take on different forms. Earrings and other types of jewelry made from silver and turquoise became a status symbol and a sign of wealth. Today, they represent generations of artistry and resilient cultural identities that have withstood the test of time.
Our handmade Native American earrings are expertly crafted by Indigenous artisans. They make the perfect gift (to yourself or a loved one) and come in a variety of styles. The main types of earrings we carry include:
Native American turquoise earrings are known for their breathtaking color and protective properties. They come in multiple shades of blue and green, ranging from teal to cerulean. Each pair represents a connection to the sky, water, and earth and is designed with sterling silver settings.
Native American hoop earrings can be dressed up or down, depending on the occasion. Our hoop earrings feature a range of materials, including turquoise, sterling silver, and heishi beads. Some showcase intricate silverwork, while others boast innovative stone inlays.
Red coral is a coveted material in Native American jewelry making. It represents life force and is used in stone settings and beads. Some artisans pair it with lapis or turquoise to create a striking contrast reminiscent of the conflicting forces present in nature.
Due to its deep, celestial blue, lapis lazuli is associated with truth, spiritual vision, and wisdom. Our collection of lapis lazuli earrings includes chandelier designs, multi-stone inlays, and single-stone drops. These pieces are ideal for those seeking adornment with a deeper meaning.
Our multi-stone inlay earrings are inspired by Native American craftsmanship. Each stone is cut and placed in a sterling silver setting to form a geometric design. Commonly used materials include turquoise, coral, jet, lapis lazuli, mother-of-pearl, and spiny oyster.
Some of our other designs include tufa cast earrings, naja earrings, shell slab earrings, and Navajo pearl earrings. We pride ourselves on promoting both contemporary and traditional Native American jewelry pieces. Whether you’re looking for an understated set of earrings or a statement pair, our collection has something for everyone.
