    These earrings have a beautiful stone, and once again I don't know from which mine. They are similar in color to the bracelet I posted...a Robin's egg blue with a gold/brown matrix.

    They measure 1-1/4" x 3/4" and are marked sterling. They are also marked H Y. This isn't Henry Yazzie, but research tells me they are probably Harold Yazzie. So if anybody knows for sure, I'm all ears.

    My Mom is getting these, but she gets to pick. Sometimes dangles annoy her.

      melaniej thank you for the link. There are a gazillion Yazzies. Definitely not Henry, and some of my Internet research at different gallery sites is leaning me towards Harold. I have a coral ring I'm researching that is giving me a headache. Same thing..L. Y. Thought it was Louise Yazzie, but leaning to Leo or Lee Yazzie. A head pounder. Thanks again!
