Authentic Turquoise Earrings & Native American Earrings

Find the pair that speaks to you.

Our earring collection brings together authentic turquoise, sterling silver, traditional silversmithing, and the unmistakable character of the American West. From simple turquoise studs and everyday dangles to bold statement earrings, every pair is selected for its craftsmanship, stone quality, and individual character.

Dakota Sky Stone has been a family-owned turquoise jewelry business since 1971. For four generations, our family has built relationships with Native American artists, silversmiths, and stone sources throughout the Southwest. Today, we continue that tradition by working directly with artists and carefully selecting jewelry that feels special enough to wear now and keep for generations.

Genuine Turquoise Earrings With a Story

No two pieces of natural turquoise are exactly alike.

The color, matrix, veining, and markings found within each stone are part of what makes turquoise so distinctive. You may find brilliant sky blues, deep blue-green tones, earthy brown matrix, or dramatic spiderweb patterns throughout our collection.

Our turquoise earrings may feature stones from well-known turquoise sources such as Kingman, Royston, Sleeping Beauty, Boulder turquoise, and other sought-after varieties depending on current availability.

Rather than trying to make every stone look identical, we celebrate those natural differences. They are part of the story of the stone and part of what makes your jewelry uniquely yours.

Native American Made Earrings

Many of the earrings in our collection are handcrafted by Native American artists and silversmiths from the Southwest, including Navajo, Zuni, and Hopi artisans.

We believe knowing who made a piece matters.

Whenever artist information is available, we identify the maker so you can better understand the craftsmanship behind the jewelry you are wearing. Many pieces are also artist stamped.

Styles can range from traditional sterling silver and turquoise designs to detailed stonework, inlay, stamped silver, clusters, crosses, geometric designs, and contemporary interpretations of Southwestern jewelry.

The result is a collection that feels rooted in tradition without feeling like something that needs to stay in a jewelry box.

These pieces are meant to be worn.

Sterling Silver Turquoise Earrings

Sterling silver and turquoise have been paired for generations, and it is easy to understand why.

The cool tone of sterling silver creates a natural contrast against turquoise, allowing the color and matrix of the stone to stand out. Depending on the artist and design, you may see smooth silver settings, stamped details, oxidized finishes, handmade bezels, silver drops, or more elaborate silversmithing.

Some earrings are understated enough for everyday wear. Others are built to become the centerpiece of an outfit.

That variety is part of what makes turquoise earrings so easy to collect.

Turquoise Stud, Drop & Dangle Earrings

Looking for something subtle?

Turquoise stud earrings and smaller post earrings are an easy way to add authentic turquoise to an everyday look without wearing a larger statement piece.

Want something with more movement?

Turquoise drop earrings and dangle earrings bring the stone closer to the face and can range from delicate designs to larger handcrafted pieces featuring multiple stones, silverwork, or longer silhouettes.

For collectors who love bold Southwestern jewelry, our larger statement earrings showcase the artistry of the silversmith and the natural beauty of the stones.

Because our inventory changes as one-of-a-kind pieces arrive and sell, the collection is always evolving.

Earrings Featuring Turquoise and Other Natural Stones

Turquoise may be what started our family's story, but you will find more than turquoise throughout Dakota Sky Stone.

Our earrings may also feature stones and materials such as:

• White Buffalo
• Spiny oyster
• Mother of pearl
• Coral
• Opalized wood
• Lapis
• Sonoran turquoise
• Royston turquoise
• Kingman turquoise
• Sleeping Beauty turquoise
• Boulder turquoise
• Other natural and collectible stones

Each stone has its own colors, patterns, and personality, giving you even more ways to find a pair that feels like you.

Western Earrings That Can Be Worn Your Way

Turquoise jewelry has strong roots in the American Southwest, but you do not need to save it for a Western outfit.

A small turquoise stud can add color to a simple everyday look. Sterling silver dangles pair easily with denim, boots, dresses, or layered jewelry. Larger turquoise statement earrings can stand on their own with almost anything.

Some customers build an entire look around turquoise.

Others simply wear the pair they love.

We think both are the right way to do it.

One-of-a-Kind Earrings Worth Holding Onto

Some jewelry is mass produced by the thousands.

This is different.

Many of the earrings we carry are handcrafted in limited quantities or are completely one of a kind. Natural stones vary, artists continually create new work, and certain turquoise varieties can become increasingly difficult to find.

That means a pair available today may not be something we can replace later.

If a piece calls to you, there is usually a reason.

That feeling is part of what has kept our family excited about turquoise jewelry for more than 50 years.
