The 1950s Vintage Zuni Needlepoint Necklace and Earring Set is a beautiful example of the precision and artistry that define traditional Zuni jewelry. Featuring slender, hand-carved turquoise stones individually set in sterling silver sawtooth bezels, the set creates a delicate, mosaic-like pattern with remarkable symmetry and detail. Collectible and timeless, it reflects the skill of Zuni lapidary artists and the enduring beauty of vintage Southwestern design.

Jo’s Note:
I love the delicate craftsmanship of Zuni needlepoint. Each tiny stone is shaped and set by hand, giving the necklace such texture, movement and charm. With the matching earrings, this set feels especially rare, elegant and easy to treasure.
