Est Value 1500.00 This exceptional, artist-signed Native American jewelry set is a true showcase of traditional craftsmanship, cultural pride, and the bold beauty of White Buffalo Turquoise. Handmade by Native American silversmith M. Spencer, this lariat-style necklace and matching earrings set exemplifies the artistry, skill, and deep heritage collectors seek in authentic Native jewelry. White Buffalo Turquoise, known for its striking contrast of milky white tones laced with dramatic black veining, is revered for its rarity and spiritual meaning. Often associated with clarity, balance, and protection, this gemstone has become one of the most desired stones in Native American art. Each stone in this set is hand-selected and uniquely shaped, ensuring no two pieces are alike. Measuring approximately 23.5 inches, the lariat necklace features a beautifully balanced arrangement of polished White Buffalo stones, each framed in masterfully hand-stamped sterling silver bezels. The stones are bordered with traditional bead accents and rope-work detailing—hallmarks of high-quality Native American silversmithing. The centerpiece drop stone creates a dramatic focal point, enhancing the natural flow and elegance of the lariat design. The matching earrings mirror the necklace’s craftsmanship, with teardrop-shaped White Buffalo stones suspended from sterling hooks. Lightweight yet visually impactful, they complete the set with perfect symmetry and harmony. Weighing approximately 121.8 grams, this set carries the substantial, luxurious feel that serious Native American jewelry collectors appreciate. The weight is a testament to the solid sterling silver construction and the quality of the stones.
