Oval Royston Turquoise Raindrop Earrings by Teller Indian Jewelry

Long, graceful drops of sterling silver frame vibrant oval Royston turquoise in these handcrafted Raindrop Earrings by Navajo silversmiths Mary and Everett Teller. The elongated design is finished with crisp hand-stamped details that draw the eye from the ear wire to the natural turquoise cabochon below. Slender and lightweight, the earrings offer an elegant profile while showcasing the rich color and distinctive character of American-mined turquoise.

Royston Turquoise comes from the historic Royston mining district near Tonopah, Nevada, where several small mines have produced turquoise for more than a century. Unlike many turquoise deposits known primarily for bright blue stones, Royston is admired for its broad range of colors, from vivid blue to deep green, often accompanied by warm brown or golden matrix. Its natural variation makes it a favorite among Native American silversmiths, who select each cabochon for its individual color and pattern.

Mary and Everett Teller are Navajo silversmiths known for their handcrafted sterling silver jewelry featuring natural American gemstones. Working together, they create pieces distinguished by traditional stampwork, balanced proportions, and clean, timeless designs that allow each stone to remain the focal point. Their jewelry reflects the enduring traditions of Navajo silversmithing while celebrating the beauty of carefully chosen turquoise.
