The hallmark of Southwestern style is the inspiration it takes from desert landscapes: warm, earthy tones, highlighted with turquoise and gold; jagged shapes and lines to represent canyons and cacti; and natural, tactile materials like leather, silver, and suede. Patterns are influenced by centuries of Mexican and Indigenous artisanship, including craftwork of the Aztec.
Out of this heartland of colours and textures emerges a striking new collection of wooden drop earrings with a distinct Southwestern flair.
Teardrop-shaped and etched with Aztec-inspired geometrics, these earrings evoke images of rose-gold desert sunsets and sky-blue vistas. The wooden backing serves as a unique canvas for its turquoise stone overlay, encircled by beaded silver metal.
Each pair of wooden Aztec Teardrop Earrings is decorated with a different colour palette and motif.
Desert Sky: The turquoise bead pops against black, white, and wood-grain chevrons.
Tribal Harmony: Rustic reds and tans are accented by serrated lines of warm white and blue diamonds, setting off the turquoise bead.
Turquoise Horizon: The turquoise stone anchors a dynamic pattern of red, blue, and tan diamonds with bands of chevron on an off-white background.
Lightweight, with a fishhook fastener, wooden Aztec Teardrop Earrings have a carefree, bohemian flavour that makes them the perfect accessory for denim, ponchos and shawls, fringed jackets, cowboy boots, and summer prairie sundresses. Their Southwestern style will be at home everywhere from an outdoor music festival to a dinner party with friends.
