Description
- This is an absolutely STUNNING necklace choker and earrings featuring natural Sleeping Beauty turquoise in petite point setting. The piece is signed on the back AP, Antoinette Platero, Laguna Pueblo silversmith.
- This necklace consists of three sections, all interconnected with a handmade link chain. The chain continues up each side, and the length is perfectly set for the necklace to hang right on the upper chest. It’s not quite a choker yet high enough to be the focus of the eye when worn with a lower cut neckline.
- Her work heavily reflects both classic Pueblo and Navajo silversmithing traditions. She is highly regarded for her handcrafted, collectible sterling silver jewelry pieces that regularly feature organic designs and vibrant Southwestern stones.
