Description
 
This wonderful swirl silver earring pair offers the refined modernist designs of the White Hogan Shop’s silver jewelry, lead by artist Kenneth Begay. Kenneth Begay (1913–1977) was called the "father of modern Navajo jewelry" for his unique and creative modern designs. Although his career began from the traditional jewelry teachings of Fred Peshlakai, Kenneth took his talent beyond those early lessons. He created elegant, clean designs with balance and beauty! These beautiful earrings depicts his style of work perfectly. Simple elegance!


This swirl design is one of the more familiar creations done by Kenneth. He crafted this design in the 1950's and it has been highly collectable from the beginning. The earrings measure 3/4" by 7/8" , with a unique added wider end screw backs. Can be converted to posts upon request. Absolutely beautiful on! Each earring is stamped with the White Hogan’s shop mark, KB and sterling.
