Rainbow Yei Sand Cast Sterling and Turquoise Native American Navajo Earrings - Martha Cayatineto
These earrings feature a rainbow Yei who is a benevolent spirit. There is a lot of information on the web about Yei, but I particularly liked this: ".....the symbol represents the Navajo Yei Spirit who mediates between humans and the Great Spirit." Martha Cayatineto has accented these Yei's with turquoise. The silver has a nice dark patina and a soft satin finish which brings out Martha's stamp work. Signed on the back MC (Martha Cayatineto, Navajo) and sterling.
Measurements: 1 5/16" top to bottom x 1 1/2" wide

Care Instructions
Protect your jewelry from harsh chemicals and solvents as they can damage turquoise and other stones. I recommend using a Sunshine Cloth or similar to polish your silver. Do not immerse or subject your jewelry to running water as it can dislodge the stone from the setting.
