Pow Wow Hand-Beaded Earrings

These intricate earrings are hand-made. 

Beadwork is a very special skill that has been passed down from generation to generation among our people (the Diné or Navajo). Each piece is so beautifully unique with all hand-strung beads.

Shirley Originals

Hang Approximately 4 3/8"

Shirley has been making jewelry since she was a very young child. This puts Shirley's skill level into the expert realm.

Growing up in the heart of the Navajo Nation, Shirley learned this skill from her mother.

Shirley is of the Many Goats clan and is born for the Tangle Clan.

Shirley says her favorite part of making jewelry is the ability to support her family. Her mother began making jewelry as a means to provide for Shirley and her siblings when they were young. She was a single mother trying to balance all that was required of her.

Shirley's mother taught all of her children to make jewelry with her and they made it a family business. The kids would help pay for their school clothes and anything else they needed. Shirley has kept this means of income for her own family ever since. 

Shirley loves the art of putting odds and ends together of all her leftovers. She loves the hobby aspect of this skill. 

Created All By Hand

In The Traditional Way

These intricate earrings are created all by hand in the traditional way. Shirley takes great care in crafting these true works of art and each one comes out beautifully. This craft has been passed down and Shirley hopes to pass it onto her own grandchildren.

Why Wear Silver & Turquoise

Turquoise Tells The Holy People You Know Where You Came From

The legends say... turquoise is meant to remind us of our existence in the Blue World. The Blue World is the second in the teachings of the four worlds. It has a few different names: The Second World, The Blue World, The Spirit World, and The World With No Surface. Turquoise is said to offer protection. To identify to the Holy People, the Five-Fingered beings who know where they come from. Our Navajo Historian, Wally Brown, uses his necklace to teach about the symbolism of turquoise.

Customer Reviews

Hugh C.

“...that large turquoise piece in Roy Huskies pendant Islands is the most beautiful turquoise I've ever seen. And being born and always living in S.W. Oklahoma, Native Country, I've seen plenty. I've got to take a picture of it. It just grabs me and I love to just look and admire it.”

Kelley H.

"So happy with the special Traditional Way necklace. We went to Angel Oak, a very old tree on Johns Island, SC to put it on."

Jennifer B.

“This afternoon, I had a discussion with my niece and nephew about wearing turquoise and why it’s important especially when we do not reside in the four scared mountains. I didn’t know all the other details mentioned... now I can provide more context to my niece and nephew about wearing turquoise and silver when I see them again.”

Nattalia N.

Already this grouping of vital symbols has improved my life spiritually, emotionally, intellectually, and physically. May each of you live the very best of life as you improve the lives of us all through your endeavors. The Internet is a vast place to be searching for insight; I am so happy that I came upon Wally in my searches."
