Vintage Sterling Silver Petroglyph Earrings

Beautifully crafted and rich with symbolism, these vintage sterling silver earrings feature a textured landscape design with cut-out petroglyph-style figures, including a horse and kokopelli, set beneath a trio of stars. The irregular triangular form and softly domed surface give each earring a sculptural, hand-worked quality.

The earrings are stamped “Sterling” with a copyright symbol, and though the maker’s mark has worn with age, the craftsmanship reflects the work of a skilled Southwestern silversmith active in the late 20th century. Their patina adds warmth and authenticity, highlighting the recessed textures and desert-inspired imagery.
