Sterling Silver Patterned Kokopelli Earrings

Approximately 50mm drop.

The Kokopelli is a traditional design of the flute playing fertility deity. His curved humped back carries the seeds of unborn children and crops for the fields. Like most fertility deities, he presides over both child birth and agriculture. Kokopelli travels from place to place sharing knowledge, news and partaking in rituals usually relating to marriage and fertility in some way.

The image has been around some 1500 years at least and the Hopi silversmiths keep the traditions alive in their unique one off design pieces like these gorgeous detailed earrings.

These beautiful earrings form part of our Native American Collection. Delicately designed and handcrafted on the reservations. Purchasing genuine pieces from the reservations ensures the preservation of these incredible crafts for generations to come.
