Early Navajo hand wrought silver fluted button earrings. These buttons were made and worn on Navajo clothing in the later 1800s through the mid-1900s. They may have had shanks on the back at one time, I cannot tell. The twisted wire "Rope" was added when they were made into earrings. They were likely screwbacks that were converted to modern pierced earrings.
The buttons measure 3/4" in diameter and 1 1/2" long. Total weight: 7 grams. No hallmarks. Buttons c. 1900.
Thank you for considering used items. When you reuse, recycle and reinvent old things, you are preventing new ones from being made. When you wear vintage you not only prevent new ones from being made, you are creating a fashion look and style all of your own. You are also helping my small business and my family as well as the families of those who are always scouting out great finds for me. For that, we all THANK YOU! ❤️
