CECIL ATENCIO Southwestern Native American Navajo lapis sterling silver earrings
,
hallmarked C. ATENCIO, and stamped STERLING.
Navajo artist Cecil Atencio was born near Chaco Canyon at Kimbeto, New Mexico in 1956, and has been silversmithing since his early twenties. He currently resides in Tohajiilee, New Mexico, with his wife, children, and grandchildren.
This lovely piece showcases 4 royal deep blue stones with silver bits, nicely polished and set in smooth bezels. The buttons (top section of the earrings) have twisted wire wrapped around their stone, and the dangles are farmed by a nicely cut and filed silver border.
These two post earrings have matching butterfly backs. They are about 2 3/8" tall, top of the button to bottom of dangle, by roughly 7/16" wide, at their widest point. The larger stones alone are roughly 1 1/8" tall by 5/8" wide, from bezel to bezel. Each earring weighs approximately 12.5 grams. Superb deep blue stones and very nice silver work.
