Larose Ganadonegro is a Navajo silversmith from whom we have bought many rings, pendants and earrings. Her smithing is clean and precise. Born in 1956, she has been smithing silver for over twenty years.
This cluster pendant is set with one large teardrop of deep, deep orange spiny oyster surrounded by 20 small ovals of pale blue natural Whitewater turquoise. The bale of this pendant allows it to be worn on Erma Arviso's antiqued Sterling beads of up to 8 mm. diameter.
