This very modern style pair of earrings is pyramidal in all three elements of the design—the silver section concealing the post for pierced ears, the large silver piece that displays the turquoise, and the shape of the channel inlay turquoise. The turquoise was placed between thin silver strips at midsection.
The earrings are stamped with a logo consisting of a capital K with feathers extending horizontally from the letter. We have not yet identified to whom this mark belongs. The earrings are strikingly beautiful.
Condition: very good condition
Provenance: from the collection of a gentleman from Colorado
