Sterling Silver Green Turquoise Gemstone Concha Lever Back Earrings
Proud and Confident
While we are appreciating the beauty of gemstones and jewelry, we certainly want to ensure we honor the inspiration for our jewelry designs ~ the American Southwest and Native American culture! Conchas are quintessential icons representing the beauty and expert skill found in Native American artistry. For us, Concha designs also represent pride. We believe that all collectors should be proud of who they are, where they're from and what inspires them. To us, wearing the concha feels like proudly showing our Southwestern heritage and story. We feel the honorable spirit of the Southwest thriving within us when we wear concha jewelry, and we hope you do too. Proudly express it by collecting all the gemstone options for these earrings, including:
EXCLUSIVELY OURS! Sterling Silver Orange Spiny Oyster Flower Cluster Ring

When we slow down to appreciate the small things in life, like flowers, we are able to appreciate what we are so fortunate to experience in our own journeys! This ring is in our Easter basket because wearing it makes us feel like we can stop and “smell” the flowers anytime we want. That means a reminder right on our finger to show gratitude! Wear an entire garden on your fingers by collecting the other gemstone options, such as:
