These beautiful Zuni dangle earrings feature a delicate teardrop-shaped silver frame adorned with hand-cut red coral pieces arranged in a graceful fan at the base. The coral segments are set in traditional serrated bezels, adding a rich texture and warm color that reflects classic Zuni craftsmanship. Each earring is topped with a bright turquoise cabochon post, creating a striking contrast between sky-blue and deep red—a combination cherished in Southwestern jewelry for its balance and vitality. Lightweight and full of movement, these earrings bring a timeless, handcrafted elegance.
Coral has long been valued in Native traditions as a symbol of life force, protection, and grounding. Its vibrant red hue is believed to strengthen vitality, encourage resilience, and ward off negative energy.
Turquoise, the sacred Sky Stone, is honored for its protective, strengthening, and clarifying qualities—representing truth, courage, and the blessings of Father Sky. Together, these stones create a harmonious blend of warmth, protection, and clarity.
