Hand-stamped sterling silver jewelry is a hallmark of Navajo craftsmanship, with designs often reflecting natural and cultural motifs. Dome-shaped earrings like these were commonly produced in the mid-to-late 20th century, utilizing traditional stamping techniques that have been passed down through generations. The patina adds to their authenticity, though they can be polished if preferred. These earrings are sought after for their connection to Native American heritage and their timeless, wearable design.
