Light Blue Kingman Turquoise Oblong Slab Earrings by Teller Indian Jewelry

These striking earrings by Teller Indian Jewelry feature polished, light blue Kingman turquoise slabs framed in smooth sterling silver bezels. Each stone has a distinctive network of dark matrix, giving the vivid blue turquoise an almost map-like appearance. The long, tapered stones are simply presented to let the natural character of the turquoise take center stage, while hand-formed sterling silver ear wires and coiled accents add a subtle touch of detail. The result is a clean, contemporary interpretation of classic Navajo turquoise jewelry. The earrings are hallmarked “EMT” within a fish, the shared hallmark of Navajo silversmiths Everett and Mary Teller. The Tellers are a husband-and-wife silversmithing team known for their handmade jewelry, including overlay, inlay, and stone-set work. Kingman turquoise comes from the historic Mineral Park mining district in the Cerbat Mountains of northwestern Arizona, near Kingman. The deposit has a long history of Indigenous turquoise use, predating commercial mining, and is particularly known for its range of blue hues and distinctive matrix patterns. These earrings showcase a lighter blue variety with dramatic dark veining—an especially appealing combination against the bright finish of the sterling silver.
