Sterling Silver Onyx & Turquoise Jewelry Set — Signed "L", Sz 6.5 Ring & Earrings
This vintage Navajo sterling silver jewelry set includes a pair of post-back earrings and a matching ring, each beautifully crafted with bezel-set stones and traditional Southwestern silversmithing details. The set features elegant black onyx cabochons paired with hand-stamped floral and scroll motifs. The ring also includes a small turquoise accent, offering a striking contrast in both color and cultural symbolism.
The earrings are marked “L" STERLING, a hallmark used by several Navajo silversmiths including Jeff Largo, Lincoln Robert, and Lutricia Yellowhair. While the specific maker is unconfirmed, the style, materials, and craftsmanship are consistent with mid-to-late 20th century Navajo work. The ring, while unmarked, matches the earrings in design and construction, and is clearly part of the original set.
Condition
Good vintage condition with some wear and light signs of use. All stones are secure in their bezels. Silver retains its original patina—polishing has been left to the buyer's preference.
