Beautiful Vintage Native American Navajo Morenci Turquoise Sterling Silver Leaf Earrings
The Morenci turquoise mine, located in southeastern Arizona near the town of Clifton, is one of the most historically significant and highly regarded turquoise mines in the United States. Known for producing vibrant blue turquoise with unique pyrite inclusions that often appear silver or golden, Morenci turquoise is distinctive and highly sought after. The mine, primarily operated for copper, produced turquoise as a byproduct, making it a rare and valuable resource. While the mine is no longer active, Morenci turquoise remains a favorite among collectors and artisans for its rich color and striking metallic matrix. Its durability and natural beauty have made it a staple in Native American jewelry, particularly in pieces by Navajo and Zuni artists. Morenci turquoise is a treasured reminder of Arizona's turquoise mining legacy and its contribution to Southwestern art and culture. Sterling silver. Each earring measures 1-1/8" long and 5/8" wide. The earrings weigh around 6 grams.
