JSW195 Dangle Earrings

Silver and turquoise dangle earrings. The channel inlay earrings are 1/2” x 4”.

Channel inlay is one of the most intricate techniques of jewelry making.  An inlay base design is made and a rim of silver is soldered around the edges.  Silver partitions are put in to form “boxes” for the cut stones to fit into.  The Zuni Indians are known for their channel inlay jewelry.
