White Buffalo Inlay Half Hoop Earrings by Tammie Johnson, Zuni

Tammie Johnson, a Zuni silversmith, created these White Buffalo inlay half hoop earrings that curve gently beneath the earlobe in the classic half hoop format. White Buffalo is a white magnesite matrix material from Nevada with bright white color and black matrix patterns. Zuni inlay — in which stones are precisely hand-cut and fitted flush within silver channels — is recognized as the most technically demanding stone-setting tradition in Native American jewelry. Available exclusively through Turquoise Mustang.
