Spectacular Lapis is the basis for these mosaic teardrops backed with shell. The deep blue is offset by the colors of the other accent stones.
Dean is Angie Reano Owen's son. He usually collaborates with his wife, Rena but these are specifically his. Dean told me this Lapis was so hard it was exptremely difficult to work.
Most Kewa earrings are quite light for their size due to the limited use of metal and the lightweight of the materials.
Purchased directly from the artist.
