Celebrate authentic Southwestern artistry with these handcrafted earrings by Alton Joe, a talented Navajo artist in Ganado, Arizona. Each earring features genuine Kingman turquoise—a prized variety known for its vibrant blue-green hues—set in polished sterling silver beads. The design showcases round silver beads interspersed with delicate, blooming bead motifs inspired by the Navajo blossom pattern.

In Navajo culture, the blossom design symbolizes fertility, abundance, and protection, reflecting deep cultural values and timeless beauty. While originally embraced by the Navajo, this floral-inspired beadwork spread to neighboring tribes such as the Zuni and Pueblo by the early 1900s, making it a cherished tradition across the Southwest.

These earrings are more than jewelry—they’re a wearable piece of heritage, handcrafted with care and meaningful symbolism by a respected Native artist whose work honors centuries of cultural artistry.
