Heishi earrings with Turquoise are a stunning blend of traditional Native American craftsmanship and vibrant style.  Heishi, meaning "shell" in Keresan, refers to small, hand-crafted beads typically made from materials like turquoise, shell, or other gemstones.  These earrings often feature meticulously cut and polished turquoise beads, sometimes combined with sterling silver, coral, or other stones for a striking contrast.
