ALV Sterling Silver Statement Earrings

The earrings are vintage Native American Navajo sterling silver dangle earrings crafted by the silversmith Joe Delgarito. Pieces featuring these long, distinctive wavy silver tentacles or rain fringe strands are hallmarked with his signature along with "ALV", which denotes the ALV Delgarito Shop. His work frequently integrates traditional Southwestern and weather motifs, such as the prominent lightning bolts and stamped crescent/storm cloud elements visible on this pair.
