Vintage Sterling Silver Turquoise Starburst Stud Earrings 925 Mexican Silver 8mm Domed Natural Turquoise Golden Matrix Southwestern Earrings
These vintage sterling silver turquoise starburst stud earrings feature beautifully matched natural turquoise cabochons with distinctive golden matrix veining and noticeable dome height, giving the stones exceptional character and presence. The classic starburst settings with applied bead-tip rays reflect the timeless Southwestern aesthetic associated with mid-late 20th century Mexican silver workshop jewelry.
The turquoise cabochons measure approximately 8 mm across and display vibrant sky-blue coloration accented by warm golden matrix—an especially attractive and less commonly seen matrix tone that enhances the natural appearance of the stones. The overall starburst settings measure approximately 15 mm across, offering a substantial yet wearable statement size.
Unlike flatter commercial turquoise studs, these earrings feature pronounced domed cabochons and closely matched stones, indicating careful stone selection and quality vintage construction.
Marked 925 for sterling silver.
A classic and versatile pair for Southwestern styling, turquoise collectors, or anyone who appreciates vintage silver gemstone jewelry with strong natural character.
