Description
 
Husband-and-wife team Blake and Velma Lesansee started working together in the mid-1950s. Best known for their inlaid owl design in necklaces, bracelets, earrings and pins. These pretty little 1950's earrings are their early Zuni work and are flat inlay, with turquoise, jet, coral and shell. Very pretty earrings that look lovely on.

The earrings measure, 1" long by 3/8" wide, with clip on backs.

Their work is featured in the publication from 1977, Zuni The Art and The People, Vol 3.
