These earrings are absolutely gorgeous! They are delicate—yet bold—statement pieces, and are quite unique. I bought them for a friend and I know she is going to love them.

I love these earrings soooo much!! They are beautiful crafted and super light!! The length is perfect. There was a bit of a mix up on my order but Violet helped me exchange my order for the correct one with a little extra gift. She didn’t have to do that but she genuinely cares about her customers and their happiness! I will treasure these earrings forever!! They are amazing!! Will be purchasing from this shop again soon! ❤️

The earrings are beautiful and definitely well crafted though I was expecting something slightly larger. They are on the small side but I can wear them when my hair is up to be seen.

Unique Hand made Native American jewelry

My Grandmother & Mother taught me the traditional art of beading. I have combined that with modern styles, techniques, to create unique and one of a kind hand made pieces of art. No two are alike. I am inspired by the outdoors and my native designs passed down from generation to generation.
