Concho-style earrings like these draw directly from Southwestern and Western fashion motifs, echoing Navajo silverwork traditions but adapted for global production. The stylized radiating swirl and granulated border are frequent design elements in mass-market Western Revival jewelry, particularly in the 1990s when demand surged for silver and turquoise accessories. Though handmade techniques are mimicked, the uniformity suggests they were produced in Mexico, a major exporter of sterling jewelry during this period. These earrings would have appealed to consumers seeking affordable Western flair—part costume, part homage—especially in tourist markets and boutique catalogs.
